Anyone out there with a great pasta sauce recipe? Ive been outta brooklyn for too long, hit up my mom for an old Italian recipe, and we cant find any record of it. Any old school Italian's out there that wanna share? Ive got 3 bags of fresh tomato's that need to turn into some good gravy! Can PM if you dont wanna let family secrets out too far, lol.

I use Giada's recipe from her book "Everyday Italian" for a basic marinara. Simple, easy to change things here and there, and the original recipe alone is delicious. It also helps, in my own mind, that Giada is smoking hot.

An easy way to add sweetness to your sauce is carrots, shopped really fine - it beats throwing in table sugar as far as the healthy factor goes. Celery is a great way to add saltiness. Again, finely chopped. After simmering, you barely notice the celery or carrots, and you happen to be adding some solid veggie vitamins into your sauce.

How'd it go?

not well. I dunno what i effed up. but it was runny, and didnt taste good. Ive still got more stuff, so im gonna give it a go again soon.

I can't help much except to say that when my wife makes hers it takes a long time. Like 2+ hours. She let's it simmer and taste tests it quite a bit. That probably doesn't help much. What kinds of stuff are you putting in yours?

Sorry, bro. If it's too runny, try adding some tomato paste. Maybe a small can or two. As far as taste, play around with the seasoning and garlic. It takes some people years to get a good sauce recipe to perfection.......
