My Easy Homemade Tomato Sauce Recipe

Ingredients

  • 1 small sweet onion, diced

  • 5 minced garlic cloves

  • 4+ tbsp of good Italian olive oil

  • 1 - 2 tbsp balsamic vinegar glaze

  • salt & pepper

  • 4 cans of crushed tomatoes

  • a few pinches of sugar

  • chopped fresh basil

Sauté the diced onion in a generous amount of olive oil. If I have cherry tomatoes in stock, I’ll throw in a handful. After a few minutes & when the onions are translucent, add the minced garlic and chopped basil. Mix that around and let that cook for about two minutes. Pour in all of the crushed tomatoes. Add a few pinches of sugar, a couple drizzles of balsamic vinegar glaze, and salt & pepper to taste. Simmer for 45 minutes or more.

* I use a large Staub dutch oven to cook my sauce.

* You can also add a pint of cream and a few shots of vodka to make a delicious homemade vodka sauce.
