Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 35 oz. can whole San Marzano Italian plum tomatoes
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
2 tbs garlic, roughly chopped
1/2 dry, good white wine
1/4 tsp red pepper flakes
1/3 cup chopped fresh basil
1 tsp sugar
1/2 tsp salt
a turn or two of fresh black pepper

Steps:

  • Open the can of tomatoes and using kitchen shears, cut the tomatoes apart with a scissor motion right in the can, until they are rough chopped (saves a lot of mess this way). Drain tomatoes, reserving juice. Heat the olive oil in a preheated med-lg. sized saute pan until very hot, but not smoking - the larger width of the pan allows the juices to evaporate quicker, thus helping to thicken the sauce a bit. When olive oil is hot add garlic and hot pepper flakes and quickly stir with wooden spoon for 10 seconds. Garlic will turn golden, but shouldn't brown. Slowly add cut up tomatoes (mixture will sizzle at first). Cook on med. high heat, stirring often. Raise heat to high and add white wine. Cook for 5 min, then add reserved tomato juices, sugar, salt and fresh pepper. Stir. Add half of the basil to the sauce. Reduce heat to simmer and cook, stirring often, for approximately 20 minutes. Add the rest of the basil to the cooked sauce, stir and serve over pasta or vegetables with plenty of grated cheese. Keeps refrigerated for 5 days.

This sauce is a great base for other sauces. I added some chopped basil and oregano to it and it was delicious. I can't wait to try it with other herbs and spices.

I'm allergic to tomatoes, so I made this sauce with roasted red peppers instead. It was still very good, but it didn't have the same depth of flavor as the original recipe.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my sauce turned out a little bland. I think I might have added too much water.

I used this sauce on spaghetti and it was amazing! The sauce coated the pasta perfectly and the flavor was incredible.

The sauce is a little oily, but that's to be expected since it's fried. I just blotted the excess oil with a paper towel.

This sauce is so easy to make and it tastes like it's been simmering all day. I'll definitely be making it again.

I added a bit of red pepper flakes to the sauce for a little extra spice. It was delicious!

I made this sauce with grape tomatoes and it turned out great! The smaller tomatoes held their shape better than larger tomatoes would have.

I've also frozen this sauce and it reheats beautifully. So it's a great make-ahead meal option.

The sauce is also very versatile. You can use it as a dipping sauce for bread or vegetables, or as a marinade for chicken or fish.

This sauce is a great way to use up leftover tomatoes. I always have a few tomatoes on hand, so this recipe is a lifesaver.

The sauce has a nice balance of sweetness and acidity. It's also very rich and creamy, thanks to the addition of butter and Parmesan cheese.
