Steps:
- To make the beef roast, preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
- Season the beef with salt and pepper. Season the tomatoes with salt, pepper, and herbs de Provence.
- Place a medium, heavy roasting pan or Dutch oven over high heat. Heat the olive oil. Sear the beef over high heat on all sides. Turn off heat. Place the seasoned tomatoes around the seared beef and place the pan in the oven. Roast until a meat thermometer reads 130 degrees F. for medium rare, 135 for medium, about 30 to 40 minutes. Take the roast out of the oven, tent loosely with foil, and let rest for 10 to 15 minutes. The internal temperature of the meat should rise 5 degrees F more and the juices will redistribute into the roast.
- To make the sauce, place the parsley and garlic in a food processor and pulse until the parsley is finely chopped. Add the red pepper flakes, salt, red wine vinegar and the roasted tomatoes from the beef pan and process until pureed. Add the olive oil in a steady stream with the machine running.
- To serve, slice the roast and place on a serving platter. Drizzle a little sauce over the meat. Serve the remaining sauce in a small bowl alongside.

Steps:
- In a large casserole pot, heat oil over medium high heat. Add onion and garlic and saute until soft and translucent, about 2 minutes. Add celery and carrots and season with salt and pepper. Saute until all the vegetables are soft, about 5 minutes. Add tomatoes, basil, and bay leaves and simmer covered on low heat for 1 hour or until thick. Remove bay leaves and check for seasoning. If sauce still tastes acidic, add unsalted butter, 1 tablespoon at a time to round out the flavors.
- Add half the tomato sauce into the bowl of a food processor. Process until smooth. Continue with remaining tomato sauce.
- If not using all the sauce, allow it to cool completely and pour 1 to 2 cup portions into freezer plastic bags. This will freeze up to 6 months.

Tips:
- Use high-quality tomatoes: Fresh, ripe tomatoes are essential for a flavorful sauce. If you can, use tomatoes from your garden or a local farmers market.
- Roast the tomatoes: Roasting the tomatoes intensifies their flavor and gives the sauce a smoky, caramelized taste.
- Use a variety of herbs: Herbs like basil, oregano, and thyme add depth and complexity to the sauce. Use fresh herbs whenever possible.
- Don't overcook the sauce: Overcooked sauce will lose its flavor and become watery. Simmer the sauce for just long enough to allow the flavors to meld.
- Taste the sauce as you go: Season the sauce to taste with salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes. You may also want to add a touch of sugar to balance the acidity of the tomatoes.
Conclusion:
Giada De Laurentiis's spicy tomato sauce is a delicious and versatile sauce that can be used on pasta, pizza, or as a dipping sauce. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With its bold flavors and beautiful color, this sauce is sure to impress your friends and family.
