What Makes A Good Tomato Sauce?
Fresh tomatoes, canned just won’t do, garlic, chili, sugar on occasion, usually have a bit of wine in there too.
agreed on the tom’s, garlic, wine … i use crushed red pepper flakes as opposed to chili powder, and shallots are a must. oregano. sometimes basil (not till the end if it’s fresh). and a teensy squirt of lemon.
I’ve dabbled in the crushed red pepper flakes, but it seems to be a staple in so many people recipes so I’m going to have to try it next time. I also use lime and olives on occasion too, depends on the type of meat I’m using.
