Fewer ingredients, more homemade flavor. Homemade tomato sauce is naturally low in fat and calories and is an excellent dietary source of Vitamin A, Vitamin C and potassium. Feel free to add fresh herbs to this simple recipe of wholesome tomatoes. This is a good way to add flavor if you would like to eliminate sodium. You can also add fresh roasted garlic and chopped fresh onion to sweeten and flavor the sauce.
28 oz can peeled plum tomatoes
5 Tbsp unsalted butter
1 small white onion, peeled and cut in half
Kosher salt (if desired)
To serve:
Shaved Parmesan cheese
Freshly ground black pepper
Put a 3-quart saucepan over medium-high heat.
Add the tomatoes, butter, onion halves and a pinch of salt.

Crush the tomatoes lightly with the back of a spoon as they cook, stirring occasionally.
Simmer very gently for 45 minutes, or until droplets of fat appear on the surface of the tomatoes.
Remove and discard the onion.
