    Can you use tomato paste instead of crushed tomatoes?

You mention in the video to add about 1 teaspoon of salt, but the recipe says 1/2 teaspoon. I just wanted to let you know in case it was a typo and in case some people just look at the recipe without watching the video. : )

      I don't test my recipes with substitutions, so I don't know what would lend the exact same flavor and texture.

  After you bring it to a simmer, the sauce is ready.

Can you use your crock pot to make this? For how long? Also can you put in canning jar and freeze as is? Thanks!

I came across your blog/cookbook last week and have been intrigued ever since.......can't stop reading! I don't suffer from any thyroid problems that I am aware of, but love the be efits of eating an organic and grain-free diet. I am struggling a bit with condiments such as ketchup, barbeque sauce, etc... Do you have a brand that you use or a recipe for such items? My other question is balsamic vinegar ok to use? I am sorry you had to suffer as you did, but I am extremely grateful for the wealth of knowledge you are able to share with others. I look forward to your future post and thank you! ~Beth

Hi Carrie, I just made this. Well it's still simmering but it is so good and soooo easy! yay! Then I went and watched your artichoke video and man was that helpful. I'll have to try cooking artichokes. : )
