I have 9kgs of ripe tomatoes and want to make some sauce, however I hate the whole boiling and skinning process and wondered if I slow roasted the toms then they may skin just as easily but with more flavour. Any ideas and thoughts on this are welcomed before I launch into my next culinarly mission!

I would slow roast them with garlic & onions, balsamic, olive oil, oregano, salt & pepper then turn them into sauce skin and all! I've given up being pedantic about tomato skins & haven't heard any complaints from the folks I've fed!

I did cherry tomatoes a few weeks ago with some chopped onion garlic and a little oil and balsamic vinergar do it on a low heat for a few hours I added some sugar to taste at the end. My finished dish was the tomato base with roasted pumpkin and cream it made a really thick sauce, delicious served over pasta with garlic herb sausage

wicked~! thanks winnie and crails so much. Yeah I love my homemade tomato sauces but wish it wasn't such a hoo-har skinning the little suckers;-)
Do either of you add tomato paste to your recipes? because quite a few recipes call for it ...

I don't if I'm making it for longterm storage - I prefer to keep it simple so I have more options with how to use it later ... ie. pasta sauce or chilli or soup or ...

Hope you understand the edited bit ... it makes sense to me! I'm looking after a little old historic store in the middle of nowhere so if I couldn't come on here - I think I'd go round the twist!
