My Favorite Tomato Sauce
1 big can of Whole Peeled San Marzano Tomatoes
1 small can of Tomato Paste
water
Salt & Pepper
Garlic
Dried Basil & Parsley
Fresh Basil
Olive Oil
Saute a small amount of olive oil and garlic over medium heat in a big pot. Be careful not to burn the garlic!! After the garlic has had a chance to saute, add the can of Whole Peeled San Marzano Tomatoes and break the tomatoes up with your hands or a wooden spoon. I like to leave some of the tomatoes chunky, but that’s just my preference. After the tomatoes are mostly broken up, add the can of Tomato Paste, half of a big can of water, dried basil, dried parsley, salt, pepper and fresh basil. Use your judgement with the amounts that you put in. I like to rip some of the fresh basil up and toss it in & I also throw some whole leaves of basil in the pot. Bring up to a boil and then let simmer for as long as you can!
There you have it. My favorite tomato sauce ever.
