1 tablespoon fresh thyme |
1 tablespoon italian seasoning |
1 tablespoon essence, recipe follows |
2 teaspoons salt |
2 bay leaves |
3 (15-ounce) cans whole tomatoes, roughly chopped |
3 (15-ounce) cans tomato sauce |

Directions:
1. In a large stockpot, heat the oil over medium high heat. Add the onions to the pot and saute until soft, about 3 minutes. Stir the celery, carrots and garlic into the pot and cook until the vegetables are wilted, about 3 minutes.

Add all remaining ingredients except the milk, lower the heat and simmer uncovered until thickened, about 2 to 2 1/2 hours, stirring from time to time.
