This was my Grandma Sloop's recipe for spaghetti sauce. She used fresh garlic from the garden, and homemade tomato juice canned from tomatos out of the garden...she always made it with meatballs, and my mother makes it with 1 lb of ground beef...I however love it meatless! This is very very garlicky so it might not be everyone's cup of tea...I use the minced garlic you buy in a jar in the produce section - makes it very easy! Ingredients:
1 (64 ounce) can tomato juice |
6 crushed garlic cloves or 6 spoonfulls of minced garlic |
1 (8 ounce) can tomato paste |
Directions:
1. Pour tomato juice into small stockpot.
2. Add garlic.
3. Bring sauce to a boil.
4. turn down to medium, and simmer for about 1 hour, stirring occosionally.
5. Add can of tomato paste and continue cooking until paste is blended in with sauce and sauce has thickened.
6. Serve over spaghetti, enjoy!
7. Optional: add 1 1/2 lb. browned ground beef or meatballs.
8. recipe can be doubled or tripled and frozen.
