Sounds great, if a little heavy on time and energy! I must try it this season.

I made my first batch of tomato passata yesterday - a saucepan full of chopped mixed tomatoes, gently softened down to a pulp over the heat. Put through a mouli-legumes (loads of fun!) and voila! I am really pleasantly surprised by how much they made. Can't wait to make it into something... yummy!
