SPAGHETTI SAUCE FOR CANNING
Great tasting sauce. I wanted a recipe that would provide a smooth texture as well as have a few chunks in it. I like chunks but children prefer smooth. A compromise that works for us. Since tomatoes vary in acid levels adjust seasonings and sugar to your tastes.

- Add some chopped onion and garlic to the sauce for extra flavor.
- Season the sauce with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning to taste.
- Simmer the sauce for at least 30 minutes, or until it has reached the desired consistency.
- Let the sauce cool completely before canning.
