A good base for an Italian pasta dish or pizza. Note: Once the sauce is prepared taste and adjust the seasoning. If the sauce tastes too acidic, add a pinch baking soda and cook for 5 more minutes. If it needs a touch of sweetness, add a pinch of sugar or a squeeze of honey and cook for 5 more minutes. Ingredients:
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil |
1 medium sweet onion, diced |
3 large garlic cloves, minced |
32 ounces tomato puree |
1 tablespoon fresh italian parsley, chopped |
1 tablespoon fresh basil, chopped |
1 teaspoon kosher salt |
Directions:
1. Heat the olive oil in a large heavy bottomed sauce pan over moderate heat. Add the onion and saute about 5 minutes.
2. Add the garlic and simmer for another 4 - 6 minutes.
3. Add the tomatoes to the onion and garlic and bring to a simmer.
4. Add the salt, parsley and basil and simmer until reduced to a sauce-like consistency, about 15 minutes.
