Sicilian Pomarola Sauce

The lightest, freshest tomato sauce. So simple and perfect! Works best with Angel hair pasta or cheese raviolis.
2 bulbs garlic 2 lbs tomatoes (cored and peeled) 2 carrots 2 stalks of celery 1 cube butter 3 tbsp olive oil 10 sweet basil leaves 2 beef bouillon cubes 1 tsp sugar
Bring garlic, celery, carrots, basil, and beef bouillon to a boil in enough water to fully cover. Drain and set aside. Submerge tomatoes in boiling water for 2 minutes. Peel and core. Add tomatoes and drained veggies to pot, simmer 1 hour. Add sugar and blend into a loose puree in blender. Put back in pot and simmer 20 minutes. Add cube of butter and olive oil and mix. Season to taste. Cool and freeze or enjoy with pasta and freeze remainder.
