Try roasting your tomatoes prior to making your favorite canning sauce recipes. It’ll bring out the richness and enhance the flavor with caramelized undertones. Take it a step further and add a few cloves of garlic to the roasting pan. Not only will your sauce taste incredible, roasted tomatoes are easy to peel. The skins will simply slide right off.
Simply preheat your oven to 375 degrees. Slice your tomatoes in half and place cut sides down on a baking sheet. Place your garlic cloves between your tomatoes. Drizzle a small amount of olive oil on the top.
Your tomatoes are done roasting when the peels are wrinkled and starting to shrink off the edges. This typically takes about 20 to 25 minutes.
