Canned Pasta Sauce

Canned Homemade Pasta Sauce
I'm doubling my sauce today so the pictures will show double everything but the recipe is for a single batch.

Get all of your canning items together (3-4 sterilized pint jars, lids, rings, 2 large pots, sauce pan for lids, etc.).

Get a large processing pot on the stove with water heating to boil.

Open 6 cans of Petite Diced/cut tomatoes (i had to use some regular diced tomatoes since the store ran out of the petite then i took a potato masher and mashed them up some) and drain.




















Put in a large cooking pot. Add 1/4 cup sugar and Mrs. Wages Pasta Sauce seasons and i like to add a cap full of hickory smoke season but you don't have to. Turn the eye to med high but watch closely! Bring to a light boil then reduce heat.

















Simmer for 25 minutes stirring occasionally.

Place your lids in hot water.


















Get your jars out of the oven and place a funnel in one.














Fill jars with pasta sauce to 1/2" from the top. Put a lid on it and then a ring.

Place in a hot water bath thats at a boil and process 40 minutes. Water needs to be about 1/2" over the tops of the jars.



Remove and let cool. Store for up to a year!
