Pizza Sauce Journey 🍅🍕
Hey Everyone!
Trust you’re doing well. Just had to share this recent kitchen escapade with you – a rendezvous with my new kitchen gadget, the Norpro 1951 “The Original” Sauce Master!
My “Quest”
So, I recently picked up my beef and pork share from the local rancher, which triggered Operation Clear-The-Tomatoes from last summer’s garden. 🍅
Meet the Kitchen Whiz
Cue the entrance of Norpro 1951 – a device without instructions. But hey, I’m all about the challenge, so armed with a picture on the box, I assembled it and hoped for the best.
Tomato Overload Chronicles
Bags and bags of last year’s tomatoes were staring at me. I’d canned my fair share of salsa and pasta sauce, but a revelation hit – the salsa lacked that flavor kick. Time for a homemade pizza sauce experiment!
Sauce Master Drama
Enter the Sauce Master Food Strainer. The game plan? Wash, core, and score the tomatoes, letting this contraption do its magic. However, reality check – it wasn’t the seamless process I envisioned.
Hurdles and Improv
Early batches showed promise, but frozen tomatoes threw a curveball. After a bit of tinkering, I opted for my trusty Vitamix for a smoother operation. Crisis averted.
The Pizza Sauce Symphony Continues
Despite the glitches, the adventure marches on. Translucent onions, minced garlic, and a dash of dehydrated green bell peppers – the sauce is taking shape. The finishing touch involves my immersion blender for that perfect consistency.
Tomorrow’s Grand Finale
Tomorrow marks the big day – canning day! Presto canner, meet my new Nesco electric canner. A three-day rollercoaster, but the dream of savoring homemade pizza sauce keeps the excitement alive.
I’ll keep you posted on the saucy outcome. Fingers crossed for a flavorful finish! 🤞
Best,
