Homemade Tomato Sauce / Ketchup

May 6, 2022May 8, 2022 / sbaskitchen / 2 Comments

Back in March I was on a mission! I needed to replenish my larder with all things tomato! Fortunately I was able to source locally grown tomatoes, as my tomato crop, while consistent this year, was not abundant. So with 50 kg of tomatoes in the kitchen, it was time to get to work.

A few tomatoes ready and waiting…

Right at the top of the list was my homemade tomato sauce, also known as ketchup to many, but here in Australia, it’s tomato sauce. This sauce is so popular, that I always need to ensure that I make enough not only for us, but for the greater family, and also friends.

There is so much to see and do, but I REALLY want to take you to the gallery. There is a piece there that is absolutely amazing, and there may even be something that the boys may be interested in. Then maybe an early afternoon sausage sizzle at home before you leave

It worked, but we didn’t make it to the farmer’s market, instead, after a leisurely breakfast we traveled to nearby Sale and went to the Gippsland Art Gallery (we are so very lucky to have a gallery of this caliber on our doorstep).

The piece that I wanted the family to see was by local artist Klara Jones, entitled “Allerleirauh” and based on a story Allerleirauh, by the Brothers Grimm (1819), and Klara has cited the following: Continue reading →

Tomatoes, tomatoes, tomatoes…..

One of the reasons that I have been a little quiet in recent times, is the abundance of tomatoes the garden has given us! We were picking up to 7 kilograms at a time, and that meant that the kitchen was where I needed to be.
