Luckily for me my Italian genes override my Scottish when it's time to cook.
I have made GGramma's spaghetti sauce from scratch.
That means from tomatoes. Not a canned thing in the whole process.
Hours of chopping and cutting. Slicing and grating. Boiling and reducing. Cooking and simmering.
When I am done I have Hunt's Sausage and Cheese sauce.
Who knew?
My mother warned me that GGramma's recipe led to an identical product as what comes in cans.
I am very proud that I can make it though.
Give me tomatoes, onions, garlic, basil, bay, oregano, water, heat and time and I can make spaghetti sauce.
After seeing how much work it is, I don't think there are many who can make such a claim.
