EDITH'S LOW-SALT SPAGHETTI SAUCE FOR ONE

Edith's Low-Salt Spaghetti Sauce for One image

For the last few months I've been supposed to limit my salt, so I developed this recipe for spaghetti when other people are eating the higher-sodium commercial spaghetti sauces. The vinegar adds tang, which helps me not to miss the salt. I use the Pomi brand of no-salt-added tomatoes, which come in cardboard cartons, but there are other similarly low-sodium brands that come in cans. It's important to limit the parmesan measurement to 1 Tbs to keep the sodium count down. Measures are approximate, since I usually make it without measuring cups other than for the cheese. Sometimes I include 1/4 c green bell pepper, as well. Recipe can be multiplied; just have a salt shaker on the table so folks who want salt can add it. Be sure to use some of the liquid from the tomatoes.

Tips:

Use flavorful ingredients: Choose fresh, ripe vegetables and herbs to pack your sauce with flavor. Using high-quality ingredients can make a big difference in the final taste of your sauce.
Roast your vegetables: Roasting vegetables before adding them to your sauce intensifies their flavor and adds a smoky depth to the sauce.
Sauté your vegetables: Sautéing vegetables in a little olive oil before adding them to your sauce helps to bring out their natural sweetness and caramelize them slightly.
Use a variety of herbs: Herbs add a lot of flavor to spaghetti sauce. Some good options include basil, oregano, thyme, and rosemary.
Simmer your sauce for at least 30 minutes: Simmering allows the flavors in the sauce to meld together and develop. The longer you simmer your sauce, the better it will taste.
Add a little sweetness: A pinch of sugar or a spoonful of honey can help to balance out the acidity of the tomatoes and add a touch of sweetness to the sauce.
Serve your sauce over your favorite pasta: Spaghetti sauce is traditionally served over spaghetti, but it can also be used with other types of pasta, such as penne, rigatoni, or ziti.
