Lower the heat and simmer for 30 minutes until consistensy is thick. | 7. Season with salt if desired (I usually don't need to) and serve. | 8. You can substitute 1 tablespoon dried thyme for the fresh thyme. | 9. Try adding 2 cups of grated fresh zucchini at the same time as the tomatoes for a fresh summer sauce. | 10.
