For this recipe (salsa di pomodoro fresca, in Italian) I am going to show you how to oven roast tomatoes for the most delicious sauce that could not be easier. If you have a bounty of home-grown tomatoes, this is your recipe. Even if your tomatoes are not so ripe, the roasting will concentrate them and soften them to bring out their flavor. This sauce is great to keep in the freeze and it is best to store in tiptop bags. This serves 2 purposes, 1 they can store flat so you can stack them and they don’t take up a lot of room and 2, if they are portioned, you can just pull the bag out of the freezer when you need it. Microwave, or drop the bag into boiling water to defrost and dinner can be on the table in minutes. Making this sauce reminds me of my 30 Minute Tomato Basil Soup that also uses fresh tomatoes. They are not roasted for the soup, but they could be and would be so good. If you’ve made this Roasted Fresh Tomato Pasta Sauce or have a question, leave it below. I love to hear from my readers. If you can’t find this herb mix, a combination of dried basil, thyme, rosemary, sage and parsley
