Okay, maybe a silly question, but I am looking for recipes for tomato sauce. Not pasta sauce, not spaghetti sauce, but the stuff that comes in the little 8oz cans that’s basically just tomatoes and salt! We use a ton of it in different recipes and I’d love to be able to make my own, but when I try to look it up I only get recipes for pasta sauce!!

I’m sure it’s not that hard, but I know the texture has to be just right (to a certain extent) for it to work in other recipes. Has anyone made their own tomato sauce/have any tried and true recipes? Please share your wisdom 🙏

Edit: This stuff below, different from tomato paste, but very similar!

    The stuff in little cans is tomato paste, not tomato sauce. Maybe if you search that name you’ll get better results

      No, that’s a 6oz can. Slightly taller and narrower than the sauce OP means. Really only different in H20 content tho
