Directions:
The directions are the same for either sauce.
Rinse all ingredients and place in large pot. It is not necessary to cut into small pieces. Cook over medium heat for 45 min--1 hour. Check to see if tender.
Cool.
Put everything through a food mill. You may have to do this more than 1 time. Place in a pot and simmer over low heat. Do not be alarmed if the sauce seems very watery. Cook down until desired thickness. You may add tomato paste if necessary.
They both freeze well.
You may add some extra virgin olive oil when serving.
