tani: Makino Tsukushi in confusion (Tsukushi confused)
[personal profile] tani posting in [community profile] boilingwater
So, I dislike tomatoes. However, I still eat ketchup and I'm fine with sauce as long as it doesn't contain chunks of tomatoes. Unfortunately, I've been having a hard time finding any sauces that don't have those huge chunks. Too much picking at my food tends to make me lose my appetite.

Earlier today, my boyfriend suggested that there might be a way to make my own sauce so that it won't be chunky. I know that making sauce from fresh tomatoes is a bit of a process, and I'm not really that interested in a lot of hassle. But is there some way to take things like tomato paste or tomato puree or something that is similar in consistency and make it into a credible sauce? I tried googling some recipes, but everything I saw wanted me to put crushed tomatoes in, and that's really not what I want at all.

Any suggestions would be appreciated. :)

Pesto is wonderful -- basil, parmesan, pine nuts and olive oil, basically (there are variations). If you like those things, you should like it. *g*

A good quality pesto in a jar is a very useful thing to have on hand; it's great on pasta, but you can also smear a bit on chicken or fish before grilling it, which is very nice.
