Preparation
- Step 1
Place sun-dried tomatoes in a bowl, add bottled water and set aside to soak 2 to 4 hours. Drain tomatoes, reserving 1 cup of the water.
- Step 2
Place sun-dried tomatoes, plum tomatoes, basil, garlic, onion, maple syrup and olive oil in food processor, and process as fine as possible.
- Step 3
Transfer 2 cups of the mixture to a blender. Add ½ cup of the reserved water, and blend, first on low speed, then high, until smoothly puréed. Add remaining tomato mixture about ½ cup at a time, stirring it in and blending after each addition, until tomato mixture is smooth and saucelike. If too thick, add a little additional reserved soaking water. Blend in lemon juice.
- Step 4
Pulse in oregano and thyme. Season to taste with pepper.
