Having researched this you need to wash and sterilize your jars by placing in an oven for 20 min at a very low gas mark- i did mine on gas 2 and then left in oven to cool down before filling. Sauce turned out good although I added a pinch of cayenne pepper for kick and liquidized/ pushed mine through a sieve to give it a smooth texture- tastes like a strong ketchup - a really good pizza base!
it would be great to have some advice on preserving i.e how long will it last? keep oin batches? doe sit freeze well? etc
