Comments (1)Here is the mix that I am using on my hydroponics garden. 1 teaspoon of K-Gro for tomatoes. The same as Miracle Gro for tomatoes only cheaper. 1/4 teaspoon of Calcium Nitrate 1/4 teaspoon of Magnesium Sulfate (Epson Salt) per gallon of water....See MoreRECIPE: Recipes/Suggestions for using 6 in1 tomatoes
Comments (3)This is a tomato sauce I make all the time and freeze in small containers. Simple Tomato Sauce Recipe courtesy Giada De Laurentiis Serves: 6 cups Ingredients * 1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil * 1 small onion, chopped * 2 cloves garlic, chopped * 1 stalk celery, chopped * 1 carrot, chopped * Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper * 2 (32-ounce) cans crushed tomatoes * 4 to 6 basil leaves * 2 dried bay leaves * 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, optional Directions In a large casserole pot, heat oil over medium high heat. Add onion and garlic and saute until soft and translucent, about 2 minutes. Add celery and carrots and season with salt and pepper. Saute until all the vegetables are soft, about 5 minutes. Add tomatoes, basil, and bay leaves and simmer covered on low heat for 1 hour or until thick. Remove bay leaves and check for seasoning. If sauce still tastes acidic, add unsalted butter, 1 tablespoon at a time to round out the flavors. Add half the tomato sauce into the bowl of a food processor. Process until smooth. Continue with remaining tomato sauce. If not using all the sauce, allow it to cool completely and pour 1 to 2 cup portions into freezer plastic bags. This will freeze up to 6 months. One of my favorite soups: Cream of Tomato Soup Winter Style 1 16oz. can whole tomatoes 1/4 c. chopped onion 1/2 c. chopped celery including leaves 2 TB butter 1/2 t. dried basil 1/2 t. dried oregano 1 t. salt 2 TB tomato paste 1 TB brown sugar 2 TB butter 3 TB flour 2 c. beef broth 1 c. milk In a sauce pan over medium heat, simmer tomatoes, onion, and celery in the first 2 TB butter with the basil, oregano, salt, tomato paste, and brown sugar, uncovered for 10 minutes. Puree with an immersion blender or cool a little and blend in a blender or food processor. In another pan, melt second 2 TB butter, stir in flour, cook 1 minutes. Sitr in broth to make a smooth, thick sauce, Beat in milk. Add the tomato mixture. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve at once. Makes 6 servings.
