Serving size
Ingredients
- 2 tbsp. Tomato Paste
- 2 Whole, Peeled Tomatoes From the Can (No Juice)
- 2 tbsp. Lemon Juice
- 1 tbsp. Distilled White Vinegar
- 1 Clove Garlic
- 2½ tsp. Prepared Horseradish
- To taste Tabasco Sauce, Dash
- To taste Salt and Pepper
Preparation
Step 1
Chop the peeled tomatoes and minced the garlic clove. Since the tomatoes are from a can, make sure to drain them well and remove any excess juice.
Step 2
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the tomato paste and the chopped tomatoes. Stir them together until well mixed.
Step 3
To the tomato mixture, add the lemon juice, distilled white vinegar, minced garlic, and prepared horseradish. These ingredients will add acidity, tanginess, and a bit of heat to your sauce.
Step 4
Add a few dashes of Tabasco sauce for an extra kick. Be cautious with the amount and adjust according to your preference for heat.
Step 5
Season the sauce with salt and pepper to your preferred taste.
Step 6
Stir all the ingredients together until fully combined. Ensure that the sauce has a consistent texture and all ingredients are evenly distributed.
Step 7
Allow the sauce to sit for at least 30 minutes before serving. This resting time lets the flavors meld together and intensify.
Step 8
Enjoy!
