How To Make yellow tomato sauce-homemade

  • 1
    Heat olive oil and all ingredients ,except the tomatoes; sauté for 5 minutes, making sure not to brown the vegetables. You can peel tomatoes if you like-but I don't.Or you can use 4 or 5 containers of the yellow cherry tomatoes-no peeling there!

    Add the tomatoes and rice wine vinegar. Reduce heat and simmer for at least 30 minutes- the longer you leave it the better the flavor. (if making this for pasta- cook the amount you want now-8 minutes in boiling water-drain-rinse)
