feel free to share both
A nice simple marinara for you is.
Onion
Garlic
Sweet Red peppers
Seeded and pureed Roma Tomatoes
Salt and Pepper
Celery Seed
Alspice
Dry Red Wine
EVOO
Chop one medium yellow onion
5 Cloves of Garlic
2 Sweet Red Peppers
Chopped Basil
On low heat combine above and saute in 2 tablespoons of EVOO
Once Soft add 2 pinches of salt and a pinch of pepper
Add Tomatoes
a dash of celery seed
a dash of alspice
small handful of Basil
1/4 cup wine
Simmer on low for 40 minutes.
Makes a nice quick sauce for pasta.
I like to add some Zucchini to it also.
You may notice measurements are not all that exact and that is how cooking should be done.
Pizza sauce
1 6 ounce can of tomato sauce
dry onion or onion powder
Dried garlic
Honey if needed
Grated Romano Cheese
Oregano
Basil
Crushed red pepper (hot)
In a small bowl
Combine Tomato sauce
2 large dashes of onion
3 large dashes of garlic
Small handfuls of both Basil and Oregano
Dash of crushed red pepper
dash of cheese
Taste to see if it is acidic...if so add a bit of honey to the sauce.
Pinch of Salt
Stir and refrigerate for at least one hour before use
This allows the flavors to marry and thickens the sauce.
Both are simple and pretty basic.
