Redrose, a belated welcome.
My wife & I both cook, and I make pizzas (from scratch, mostly... from store-bought freezer crust, if in a time pinch). Anyhow, my wife makes tomato sauce every year from our home-grown.
She cans, freezes & dries a lot of things from the gardens we grow. Blueberries, strawberries & raspberries being among my favorites.
