Jersey plum tomatoes are out! I used my blender to make a quick tomato sauce (recipe is below) for my pasta dish.

Guinea Pig’s creamy tomato sauce and vegetable pasta.

Recipe: Guinea Pig’s Creamy Tomato Sauce

Ingredients:

• plum tomatoes (as many as you’d like)
• extra virgin olive oil, 1/4 cup for every two plum tomatoes
• 1/8 cup of toasted pine nuts
• a few cloves of roasted garlic
• 1/4 cup of whole milk

Putting It Together:

1. Core and make a cross incision at the bottom of the plum tomatoes, then boil the tomatoes for 10 seconds in boiling water.
2. Take the tomatoes out and let them rest for 1 minute before skinning them from the cross incision.
3. After skinning the tomatoes, cut them in half and spoon out the seeds. I like to save the seeds because they taste just as great as the meat part.
4. Throw the tomatoes into the blender with toasted pine nuts, which could be substituted with other nuts, and roasted garlic. Drizzle the olive oil into the blender before blending all the ingredients together. You may add more olive oil for creamier texture or richer flavor.
5. Pour the blended sauce into a sauce pan, then turn on the stove to small fire and add the milk.
6. Keep stirring the sauce slowly until the sauce starts to bubble. Season the sauce at the end with a pinch of salt and several grinds of pepper.
