Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Be sure to sauté the onions until golden brown without burning to infuse the sauce with deep flavor and a rich sweetness.
  • Portion the finished sauce into small containers and freeze; you can conveniently use it as pasta or pizza sauce whenever needed.
  • Since the sauce may stick to the bottom during long simmering, occasionally scrape the bottom with a spatula and stir.

Recommended for

  • Those who want a much richer, meatier tomato sauce than store-bought, with a hearty texture.
  • Those who want to prepare a large batch of all-purpose sauce in advance to use as a cheat key for various Western dishes.
