I love to prepare my own tomato sauce, is a basic and so simple recipe and if you wish you can store for a future use, that's why, I also put on the video the process to conserve the sauce.
Note: Before put to boil the jar, you should wash well with water and soap. It is important to create the vacuum, you will notice that you will not be able anymore to press the middle part of the cap, it will be already down because of the vacuum. When you want to use the sauce. You will hear the click.
I use Dry Oregano and basil because I could not get Fresh but, if you can get fresh, is good also to use.
