Tip

If storing in preserving jars, prepare jars as follows:

Clean jars fully. 

Sterilise jars by either boiling for 5 minutes or in a steam steriliser for at least 5 minutes. 

Place jars and lids on a clean tea towel on a baking tray and dry in an oven heated to 75-100 degrees for approximately 15 minutes. 

Once each jar has been filled, tighten lid and turn jar upside down for at least 15 minutes. 

Once cool, store pasta sauce in a cool, dry place.

    Recipe is created for
    TM 5
    If you are using a Thermomix® TM6 measuring cup with your Thermomix® TM5:
    For cooking (simmering) at temperatures of 95°C or above (200°F), the simmering basket should always be used instead of the TM6 measuring cup, as the TM6 measuring cup fits tightly in the lid. The simmering basket rests loosely on top, is steam-permeable, and also prevents food spatter from the mixing bowl.
    Please note that the TM5 mixing bowl has a larger capacity than the TM31 (capacity of 2.2 liters instead of 2.0 liters for TM 31). Recipes for the Thermomix TM5 may not be cooked with a Thermomix TM31 for safety reasons without adjusting the quantities. Risk of scalding by spraying of hot liquids: Do not exceed the maximum filling quantity and observe the filling level markings of the mixing bowl!

    I use preserving jars that I bought down at my local reject shop. I sterilise both the lids and the jars in my baby bottle microwave steriliser then dry in the oven.

    Hi Lightbee, thanks for the recipe. Just wondering what jars you use for preserving the pasta sauce? I have Ball mason jars, but they say that you cannot boil the lids to sterilise. I imagine that the lids cannot also be put in the oven. I want to find jars with lids that can be sterilised. Thanks!
