INSTRUCTIONS

~ from the Oromocto Post (years ago)
Heat the oil in a kettle and saute yhe onions slowly until golden. Add the
celery, garlic and green pepper and cook for 2 minutes longer.
Add the tomatoes, tomato paste, beef broth, bay leaves, salt and pepper to
taste. Bring to a boil and simmer uncovered fr 30 minutes or until oil is
visible around the sides of the kettle.
Add the basil, thyme and oregano and simmer for 5 minutes longer. Pass
through a food mill if a smooth sauce is desired. Set kettle in a bucket of
ice to cool quickly. When lukewarm, fill quart or pint freezer containers,
cover, label and chill in refrigerator. Freeze. Makes about 5 pints.
This is a good basic recipe that you can add to as needed. Posted to
