  3. Turn heat down and simmer, uncovered, until mixture has thickened, about an hour.
  4. Pass mixture through a food mill or coarse strainer to remove skins and seeds.
  5. Return sauce to pot and season with salt to taste.
  6. Ten minutes before serving, heat to a simmer and stir whole tomato leaves into sauce.
