Raw marinara?!?

Hi guys. I'm desperate to find a good raw marinara. I've tried sooo many and can't seem to find one I like. Does anyone have any recipes for a really good tomato based pasta sauce? Something maybe different than the others? Thanks!

  • First Blend 6 raw tomatoes and pass through a sieve (use the back of a spoon to squeeze all the juice)

    then add 1 teaspoon of apple cider vinegar

    then 2 teaspoons of raw coconut sugar(or any other raw sugar)

    1 clove of garlic mashed down with a sprinkle of sea salt

    Fresh Basil dried Oregano fresh parsley

    give it a quick wizz back in the blender and leave for at least half an hour for all the flavours to get to know each other and start the party!

    I use this as my tomato base sauce for pizzas pasta etc sometimes I add fresh chili to zing it up.

    Enjoy

  • Hi Laura,

    Just curious if you have tried any of the recipes and which you like best?

  • Hi Laura!

    I just made a video for my favorite raw marinara recipe. I use tomatoes, sun dried tomatoes and red bell better along with sage, chives, garlic and lemon juice. here is the url if you want to try it out!

  • Hey, I love to make like a half pesto half marinara thing. For me just plain marinara without a lot of herbs is kind of bland, so I add so many herbs it kinda turns into a pesto. I have two recipes like this on my Facebook page. If you have a Facebook, you sould like it. Here is the link.

  • I like a very simple one. About 4 raw tomatoes, a bunch of basil and oregano, sundries tomatoes (to desired thickness).
    • Thanks! Will definitely give it a try :)
  • Hi Laura...I am the same as you. I finally put together something that tastes yummy... to me anyway. 

    Tomatoes

    1 Mango

    handful Sun dried tomatoes

    Fresh oregano, basil, parsley..I put a lot in.

    Dried Sage 

    1/4-1/2 of a beet

    Garlic

    I find that that the beet makes it chunky and not watery. The mango makes it sweet. And the herbs make it taste like a rich meat sauce. I have served it several times to my meat eating friends and they love it. Good luck!

    • Thanks! How many tomatoes do you use?
    • It depends on how much I am making...start with 3-4 raw tomatoes...and then keep tasting it until you have reached the taste and consistency that you want. i also play with the sun dried tomatoes as well.

  • Okay! That's helpful to know.  I relate to the acidity. I use these ingredients in mine-- to taste.

    Ingredients

    Raw tomatoes --4-6

    Soaked cashews (less than 1/4 cup)

    Sundried tomatoes--less than 1/4 cup

    Fresh parsley --sprig

    Fresh oregano--sprig

    Garlic clove

    White onion

    Cold pressed olive oil

    Soaked dates (approx 3-4

    sea salt

    It's a bit a creamier and slightly sweet --so not super tangy. The sun-dried tomatoes--soaked cashews and soaked dates kind of cut down on the acid. Hope this helps!
