Tomato Sauce Recipe
Galore!

Make a tomato sauce recipe the traditional Italian way. With pride, quality ingredients, plenty of love.

Don't forget the San Marzano tomatoes and a big glass of wine to drink while your cooking!

So let's talk tomato.

How do you get started and what do you do to make a great sauce?

You could start from scratch.

See these step by step guides with pictures if you want to make a fresh tomato base for all your tomato sauces:

Peeling Tomatoes
and
Make Crushed Tomatoes

They are the beginnings of something really special.

But if you use canned tomatoes here is a comparison of the best to use and what to look for when choosing a brand. Although using a plum tomato can be just as good as using San Marzanos tomatoes, if your Italian pasta sauces include tomato as the main ingredient use San Marzano tomatoes. They are the sweetest and the best in the world!
The three basic tomato sauce recipes that are a must in any Italian pasta dish are the:

1. Pomodoro Sauce. Pomodoro is Tomato. This sauce is meant to be thick and rich in flavor. It's also a perfect base for a pizza sauce recipe.
2. Marinara Sauce Recipe. The all time versatile sauce to use for all your Lasagna recipes, baked pasta dishes or by itself over a big bowl of pasta.
3. Arrabiata Sauce For those of us who like it a little spicy, Southern Italian style.
   It only takes a few dashes of crushed red pepper flakes to create the perfect amount of heat.

The sky is the limit to making a really fresh and great tasting tomato sauce recipe. They are the key to all your exciting Italian pasta dishes and the basis of Italian cooking.
