In order to make this I only use Roma Tomatoes or Plum Tomatoes. Any other kind of tomatoes are too watery. For about 15 tomatoes make 7 pints.
First you need to skin the tomatoes to do this bring a pot of water to a boil then submerge the tomatoes about 7 at a time for about 10 mins the skins start to crack then it's time to put them into a ice cold bath. When the are cool to the touch start to peel them and place into a pot.
The above two pictures show what the waste is just the skins. When all are skin strain any water in the skin bowl into the pot.
Once you have all the tomatoes done and into a big pot . Star on low for about 15 mins.
Then boil again for about 30 mins. Stir an blend/mash till all soft. Then time to strain it . I use a pot strainer and spoon.
Once all the juice is in the pot
As to how you get them is by how long it you want to cook the sauce. For number 1 I cook for about 1 hr . I add about 1 teaspoon of sea salt . For number 2 I cook for about 2 hr on simmer till it gets to the paste stage.. I add 1 tsp of sea salt and 1 tsp of oregano . For number 3 about 1 tsp of sea salt I cook it for about 1.5 hrs. ( the time is bring to a boil for 10 mins then to simmer the rest of the time needed) You can add whatever you want to the sauce you control it...
Have fun
