Fresh Low-carb Tomato Sauce

Ten medium garden tomatoes (approximately 2-quarts)
One medium onion, chopped
Two to four cloves garlic, chopped
1-1/2 teaspoons basil
1/2 teaspoon oregano
1-2 teaspoons salt
Olive Oil 

Process whole tomatoes one or two at a time in boiling water for about one minute. Remove with slotted spoon and place in cool water for another minute. Remove skins and cores and place in a large pot. Add salt and bring to a boil. 

Boil gently for five minutes. At the end of the boiling period there will be quite a bit of liquid. Remove 3-cups of liquid for use as tomato juice. In a separate 3-quart sauce pan add enough olive oil to cover the bottom of the pan and saute onions until translucent. 

Add garlic and saute for another minute. Add tomatoes and simmer uncovered for 45 minutes or until the sauce has thickened. Add the basil and oregano and simmer another 15 minutes or until the sauce has reached the desired consistency. 

Recipe makes four-cups sauce; three-cups juice
