Sauces & Dressings

Simple Tomato Sauce

A simple marinara sauce for pasta, or when reduced,

a tasty topping for homemade pizzas.

Makes 3 cups (750ml) tomato sauce for pasta / 1-3/4 cups (440ml) tomato sauce for pizza

Preparation: 5-10 minutes plus 1 hour cooking and cooling time

(add an additional 40-50 minutes to make the reduced pizza sauce).

1

small onion (4 ounces [110g]), cut in

3

tablespoons (45ml) dry white

 

1-inch (2.5cm) pieces

 

wine or vermouth

4

cloves garlic, peeled

1/2

teaspoon (2ml) kosher salt

3/4

teaspoon (4ml) dried oregano

1/4

teaspoon (1ml) freshly ground

1

teaspoon (5ml) extra virgin olive oil

 

black pepper

1/4 -3/4

teaspoon (1 - 4ml) crushed red

1

can (28 ounce [828g]) plum tomatoes,

 

pepper flakes (optional, to taste,

 

with juices

 

 

 

for a spicier sauce)

2

sprigs fresh basil (10-12 large leaves)

 

 

 

Insert the metal blade. Pulse to chop the onion and garlic with the oregano, about 10 times. Heat the oil over medium heat in a 2-3/4-quart (2.7L) saucepan; add the onion, garlic, and oregano. Cook, stirring for 2 to 3 minutes, until the onions begin to soften and the oregano becomes fragrant. Add the canned tomatoes with their juices, basil sprigs, wine and salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover loosely and simmer for 45 to 50 minutes. Turn off the heat and let cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Stir in the black pepper and red pepper flakes if using.

Using the metal blade, pulse the sauce 15 times for a rustic, chunky sauce, or process for 2 minutes for a smooth sauce. The sauce is now ready to use for pasta. If you want a sauce for pizza, return the sauce to the pan. Simmer, uncovered, for 40 - 50 minutes to reduce, stirring now and then. Transfer the reduced sauce to a bowl to cool before using as a pizza topping. The sauce freezes well.
