On the Jacican cook group, you asked for my Tomato sauce recipe.
Here is it …
Tomato sauce
This recipe uses 1 kilogram of fresh tomatoes. You can expand this recipe to the weight of tomatoes you have to cook. I would usually do 10 kg at a time.
Recipe
Ingredients
1 kg Red Tomatoes - roughly chopped
1 clove of garlic
1 whole allspice
5-gram yellow mustard seeds
2 whole cloves
pinch (small one) cayenne

6-gram salt
75-gram sugar
Method
Cook tomato and garlic until well pulped. Put through mouli to break down to a fine pulp and remove the skin and seeds. Rinse out the pan and return the pulp to it.
Tie spices in a muslin bag and add to tomatoes along with cayenne, vinegar, salt, and sugar. Cook until it does not separate anymore. Approximately 1 and 1/2 hours. Strain to remove spices.
