SIMPLE SPAGHETTI WITH TOMATO SAUCE
This basic pasta dish can be transformed by adding extras like cooked bacon, shrimp or even a few handfuls of baby spinach to the sauce. We like canned San Marzano plum tomatoes because they are slightly sweeter and less acidic than other varieties.

Steps:
- Cook spaghetti in boiling salted water until it's al dente. Reserve 1 cup (235 ml) of the pasta water before draining.
- While the spaghetti is cooking, heat olive oil in a large pan (it should be large enough to toss the pasta in). Add garlic and tomatoes, and stir until well-incorporated. Season with salt and pepper.
- Cook tomatoes down for 5 minutes until they soften and release some of their juices.
- Then add the wine and allow that to reduce for 5-10 minutes until you're left with a syrupy sauce.
- Add the pasta to your sauce, along with a splash of pasta water and toss to coat it for about 1-2 minutes so the pasta finishes cooking and absorbs the flavor of the sauce.
- Add the parmesan and basil. Add another small splash of pasta water, if needed. Toss until the cheese is melted down and you're left with a smooth sauce.
- Gradually add small amounts of pasta water, as needed, until the sauce reaches your desired smoothness.
- Top off with extra parmesan and basil and serve immediately.
- Enjoy!

Steps:
- In a large saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the onion and sauté for 5 minutes until softened. Add the garlic and sauté for 2 more minutes, until you can really smell the garlic, and it starts to turn golden. Add the tomatoes, tomato paste, salt and pepper, oregano, basil, and red pepper flakes if using (you can also add those to portions of the sauce at the end for those who like it hot). Bring to a simmer, lower the heat to medium-low, and simmer gently for about 20 minutes (it can simmer for much longer, if you want; it will just get even richer and more concentrated). Taste and adjust the seasonings as needed.
- Meanwhile, bring a large pot of water to a boil over high heat, add a couple tablespoons of salt, and allow the water to return to a boil. Cook the pasta according to the package directions.
- Drain the pasta, return it to the pot and pour about half the sauce over, more of less according to how saucy you like it, stirring to combine. Transfer to a serving bowl or serve into individual bowls, topping each portion with Parmesan, fresh basil, and red pepper flakes as desired (or pass the toppings in small bowls at the table).

Tips:

- Don't skip the step of cooking the tomatoes down slowly over low heat. This will help to concentrate the flavor and make the sauce thicker and richer.
- If you don't have time to make your own tomato sauce, you can use a good quality store-bought sauce. Just be sure to choose one that is made with simple ingredients and no added sugar.
- To make the sauce even more flavorful, you can add a pinch of red pepper flakes or a drizzle of balsamic vinegar.
- Serve the spaghetti with plenty of grated Parmesan cheese and a sprinkling of fresh basil.
