THE ULTIMATE TOMATO SAUCE RECIPE BY TASTY



The Ultimate Tomato Sauce Recipe by Tasty image

Here's what you need: canned whole tomatoes, garlic, olive oil, unsalted butter, large onion, kosher salt, pepper, anchovies, red pepper flakes, tomato paste, dry red wine, water, spaghetti, parmesan cheese

Provided by Rie McClenny

Categories     Dinner

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

28 oz canned whole tomatoes, 2 cans
8 cloves garlic
¼ cup olive oil
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 large onion, finely chopped
kosher salt, to taste
pepper, to taste
2 oz anchovies, 1 tin or jar
1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
½ cup tomato paste
½ cup dry red wine
1 cup water
1 lb spaghetti, or paste of choice, dry
1 parmesan cheese, for grating

Steps:

  • Add the tomatoes to a deep, large bowl. Using your hands, crush the tomatoes until no large pieces remain, just a coarse tomato puree.
  • Peel the garlic cloves and finely chop.
  • Heat the olive oil and butter in a large pot over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic and season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion is softened but not browned, about 10 minutes.
  • Add the anchovies and the oil they are packed in. Cook, stirring occasionally, until dissolved into the oil, about 2 minutes.
  • Add the red pepper flakes and stir to combine.
  • Add the tomato paste and cook until it turns a dark, brick-red color, about 4 minutes (this caramelizes the sugars in the tomato, which will give a really great flavor and take the edge off that raw tomato-y taste).
  • Add the wine and cook for about 1 minute, just to burn off the alcohol.
  • Add the tomatoes and stir everything together, making sure to scrape the bottom of the pot to get all those good bits. Add water and bring it to a boil.
  • Reduce the heat to medium-low and cook the sauce for 1½-2 hours at a very low simmer; there should just be a few bubbles here and there. If medium-low is too high (every stove is different), reduce the heat to low. Stir every 30 minutes.
  • Ladle out about 2 cups of sauce: This is what is known as your "extra sauce." You'll serve it alongside the pasta or freeze it for later.
  • To serve, cook the spaghetti in a large pot of salted boiling water.
  • Drain the pasta and add it to the sauce. Serve it right out of the pot, or transfer to a serving bowl. Top with grated Parmesan cheese.
  • Enjoy!

Tips:

  • Use fresh, ripe tomatoes: This will give your sauce the best flavor. If you can't find fresh tomatoes, you can use canned tomatoes, but make sure to choose a brand that uses high-quality tomatoes.
  • Roast the tomatoes before making the sauce: Roasting the tomatoes will caramelize the sugars and give the sauce a richer flavor.
  • Use a variety of herbs and spices: This will add depth and complexity to the flavor of the sauce. Some good options include basil, oregano, thyme, rosemary, garlic, and red pepper flakes.
  • Simmer the sauce for at least 30 minutes: This will allow the flavors to meld and develop.
  • Add a little bit of sugar to the sauce: This will help to balance out the acidity of the tomatoes.
  • Serve the sauce with your favorite pasta, chicken, or fish: Tomato sauce is a versatile sauce that can be used in a variety of dishes.

Conclusion:

Homemade tomato sauce is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a sauce that is bursting with flavor. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give this homemade tomato sauce recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
