NOTE**** if you opt to use fresh tomatoes cut 6 to 8 tomatoes in half and place cut side down on a baking sheet lined with cooking oil. Bake on 375° for around 35 to 40 mins. Also add your chopped onion and whole garlic cloves and cook at the same time. Let tomatoes cool and peel skin off. They can all go straight into the blender at this time and finished in a pot.
