## :pencil: Instructions

### Step 1

Process tomatoes and their juice through food mill, pulse in food processor until puréed, or purée with immersion
blender. Purée should not be completely smooth, but should have no chunks larger than 1/16th of an inch. Set tomatoes
aside.

### Step 2

Combine olive oil and butter in medium saucepan and heat over medium-low heat until butter is melted. Add garlic,
oregano, pepper flakes, and large pinch salt and cook, stirring frequently, until fragrant but not browned, about 3
minutes.

### Step 3

Add tomatoes, yellow onion halves, basil sprigs, and sugar.

### Step 4

Bring to a simmer, reduce heat to lowest setting (bubbles should barely be breaking the surface), and cook, stirring
occasionally, until reduced by half, about 1 hour. Discard onions and basil stems. Season to taste with salt. Allow to
cool and store in covered container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
