Notes

Any tomatoes will work for this recipe, plum tomatoes are the best choice as they make the most tasty sauces.
This recipe is excellent when you have a lot of summer tomatoes in your garden, there is a ridiculous sale on tomatoes in your area or to pump up the flavor in winter tomatoes.

If you do not like a strong garlic presence you can simply leave the garlic cloves whole and roast them with the tomatoes, place in the jar with the tomatoes to give a faint aroma. Discard when using tomatoes.
