Every summer, Isabella, her mother, Dina, and her daughter, Federica, honor the family tradition and make tomato sauce in their garden. The process is a laborious one that takes several hours, from handpicking each tomato to adding basil leaves into jars one by one. This year, the family has turned more than 200 kilos of tomatoes into sauce.

I once had elderly landlords who were Italian immigrants. They were the salt of the earth! Every summer they made homemade sauce with their garden tomatoes and always shared some with me. They also made their own wine! The wife, Giovanna, would always knock on my door and hand me a bowl of homemade pasta with fresh sauce, or eggplant parmesan, etc. She'd say "Mangia, Mangia!". They treated me like a son. Old school Italians. So sweet.

You know, it’s kinda crazy to see how much tradition and culture can develop in 400 years. (Tomatoes were introduced to Italy in the 16th century and didn’t take off until a century later) I actually really like the familial hierarchy of making traditional tomato sauce. It’s like… artisans training to perfect their art form. An apprentice never starts out making the complicated stuff, they do the little things, the fundamentals, over and over and over again for years until they’ve perfected it. They slowly, ever so slowly, rise through the tiers of tasks and steps, perfecting along the way, getting it just right, until eventually you’re Nonna. You’ve mastered your art, practicing every season for 60, 70, 80, maybe even 90 years or more. You know precisely how to get it right every time. Your family, centuries before you and centuries after you, are blessed by the multi-generational perfection of a single, simple, food staple. I may not be Italian, not even fractionally, but this is the way I want my future family to make tomato sauce

Growing up I remember my grandmother and I would make the sauce exactly like this video depicted except for one difference. Before sealing the jars we would put a dollop of extra-virgin olive oil to sit on top. We would use two jars a week for Sunday sauce and it would last a whole year. Great memory. I was about eight or nine years old. Now 77.

@@KennyVo120 Hi Kenny .I’m glad you liked the tip. Don’t overdo it. A tablespoon of oil on the top not mixed per 1 quart jar is all you need. It seems to blend with the sweetness of the tomato and overtime lends a genuine taste nuance. Remember, real Italian cooking is simple. Resist the temptation to clutter your recipes with stuff that never belong in that recipe. That’s what Americans have done. Keep it clean and genuine and enjoy the flavors of nature.L

I received your answer and I need to explain why your grandmother used to call it it gravy, As newcomers from Italy and that includes me and the rest of my family, we tried very hard to assimilate to the American way, when I got Married and my mother in law called the sauce "gravy" I never corrected her, because I thought that in the US that's what it meant, but when people from Italy leave their country, they try their best to get along with others and not change their ways, so what your grandmother did was change her way to the Italian/American way. No one in Italy calls Tomato sauce "gravy", it doesn't exist. We call it Salsa.

Do you happen to be American, Canadian, etc.? Highly western nations have forgone many family bonds, traditions, and peacekeeping in favor of money or retirement. Their society reflects this... Spain and Italy have better social safety nets, a little less work obsession, and cohabitation, democracy, and compromise is normal. My future spouse is apalled at my family. Her culture, pre Westernization, frowned upon attitudes like "my house, my rules", and would work together in multi generational settings. It would be selfish and inconsiderate to get a dog when someone is allergic or doesn't want it, and the selfish person would be asked to work through it or reconsider. Kicking someone out is a last resort, as it hurts the family to do so. To constrast, my Canadian mother chose little French dogs over her future grandkids, and she longs to go to France, so she is tight fisted and cynical and can't wait to retire, have the house to her husband, youngest son, and dogs. It is hard to pass a tradition when home life is selfish and turbulent, and culture rewards it as normal. I notice elders from highly Western countries are also hoarding their knowledge, eager to talk and judge, but demand pay to teach even their own children.

As in this video, it is a family affair. You start out as a kid doing simple tasks, then gradually move up the ranks until you eventually work the machine. The General overseeing the whole operation is always Nonna. Supervising, advising, occasionally admonishing and having the final word on quality control & seasoning. It's a fantastic tradition, it brings the family together, and the pasta sauce ALWAYS tastes better with home made passata!

Only lost about 6 jars from shattering when the sauce was poured in. Double boiling the jars afterward, sometimes. What we do is place the jars on thick cardboard and cover them with blankets. Let them cool for 2 days. The lids seal during the cool down. Haven't lost any sauce to spoilage in over 39 years this way.

En el frasco, en lugar de albahaca colocamos una tira de pimiento verde, un diente de ajo entero y una hoja de laurel; sin embargo algunos le colocan albahaca u orégano. 4. Antes de tapar el frasco colocamos una cucharadita de vinagre de vino por encima del tomate para asegurar la acidez de la conserva. 5. Luego de tapar los frascos se hierven por 40 minutos. 6. Si la tapa (tapa corona, nunca a rosca) que se coloca es de buena calidad con banda de goma, la conserva dura hasta cinco años. 7. Es importante etiquetar los frascos con la fecha. 8. Si se usa la máquina para pelar los tomates, de las sobras de semillas y piel del tomate se puede hacer extracto concentrado de tomate y para conservarlo se le pone aceite de oliva.

I've only recently in the last year started making my own spaghetti sauce verses buying it at the store already in a jar. I had no idea how much of a huge difference it made. All I add is salt, a tad of sugar, garlic, pepper, oregano, basil and crushed red pepper. So much better than the suace on the shelf. I was honestly shocked it was so good being so simple. I cut a X in the skin of tomato and par boil them for like 2 or 3 min. Take out with spider strainer and let rest for about 5 min (just long enough so I can touch them) then peel the skin off, chop into cubes on a sheet pan making sure to cut off the stem part and then put in large sauce pan and simmer for like 15 min mashing with potato masher adding in the seasonings as I go by the time the sauce reduces and thickens its ready. Takes about 45 min total and you can do other things while it's cooking and reducing in pan Edit: of course, as other have said and the faster method is buying a large can of tomatoes

The most impressive part of this is that they have gone 60 years and counting without breaking that terra cotta pot. I couldnt manage a 2 mile drive from the store back home lmao

When I think of authentic Italian home cooking, this is exactly what comes to mind. 3 generations of Italian women all fussing over a single pot of simmering tomato sauce 👌

My dear Italian friend did it like this...it was amazing. He grew his own tomatoes and made his own sauce and jarred 90 and some odd jars every summer. His parents taught him. I lost him, he was a lot older than I. Having him in my life was one of the happiest times of my life. By the way, the cat was ADORABLE!!!! I enjoy tomato sauce since I was a little tot but I'm not Italian. There must be some in there because I just cannot live without my tomato sauce. I have penne marinara every Sat. at our favorite Italian Bistro....thank you for sharing. XO
