When I was growing up there was a woman in our neighborhood who grew a ton of tomatoes and always made her own sauce. I remember thinking it seemed like an awful lot of work when you can buy so many canned or jarred sauces right in the supermarket. Then she had us over for dinner and served fresh pasta topped with her homemade sauce. Wow, there was nothing like it. I never knew sauce could taste so sweet, so delicious. She had different strainers and mashers she used at the time. I bet she would have loved this great Food Strainer/Sauce Maker from Back to Basics. I’m sure it would have made her job a lot easier!

Not only is it a great tool for making sauce, it’s wonderful for making homemade baby food, soups, jams, jellies, purees, applesauce and more. Do you like canning your own foods? It even automatically peels and cores for you to cut your canning time in half.  This food strainer is built to last and is protected by the manufacturer’s 1 year warranty too.  It’s an excellent kitchen food processor for anyone who loves making their own sauce and would be a perfect gift for the chef in your family.
