Every year around my birthday, my family and I buy around 2 crates of tomatoes and get to work washing, cutting, and filling jars.
It's a long process that ends up taking the entire day, but they usually last us the entire year.
It's a tradition that is mandatory we've been doing ever since I was a little girl. No doubt I want to continue when I have my own home.
How can we possibly eat around 50 jars of tomatoes in one year you say?
Well we don't just use it for pasta dishes but also in soups, with rice, (we love to cook Spanish dishes as well like Ropa Vieja and Arroz con Pollo!) other meals throughout the year.
One thing is for sure: Tomato Sauce is life. ;)
