Ingredients :
2 - 28 oz. cans San Marzano Tomatoes
6 tablespoons Italian Olive Oil
3 half a small can of Tomato Paste
5 cloves minced garlic
1 small onion, minced (optional)
½ teaspoon crushed red pepper
12 fresh Basil Leaves, torn into several pieces each
½ teaspoon each of Sea Salt & Black Pepper
1 pound imported Italian Spaghetti
Remove the tomatoes from the cans and place one can of tomatoes in a large bowl and squeeze the tomatoes with your hands to break. Leave in the bowl.
Place the other can of tomatoes in a blender with all the juices from the can and blend about 30 seconds, until they have just turned into a puree,
In a 6 quart pot or large frying pan, add the Olive Oil and onions and saute over a low flame for 3 minutes. Add garlic and cook for 3 minutes. Do not let the garlic get dark or burn.
Add the Red Pepper Fakes. turn heat to low and cook for 1 minute.
Add tomatoes that you crushed by hand to the pot. Turn heat to high and cook on high heat, while you stir with a spoon for about 4 minutes. Add the Salt & Black Pepper.
Add the pureed Tomatoes. Fill one of the empty tomato cans half full with water and place the water in the pot.
Turn the heat on to high and cook the tomatoes until they just start to bubble and boil. Immediately turn the heat down to low, so the tomatoes will be cooking at a low simmer.
Simmer for 35 minutes while frequently stirring the bottom of the pan to keep the sauce from burning. Add fresh basil in the last ten minutes of cooking.
Cook whatever pasta you choose (spaghetti is best) according to the directions on the package. Drain pasta, toss with tomato sauce and a drizzle of olive oil, plate, and serve with cheese.
Note : Serve with either grated Pecorino Cheese, Grana, or Parmigiana
Reggiano. We reccomend Pecorino, as the Marciano's ( Marchegiano's) were southern and usually served Pecorino cheese with their pasta with tomato sauce.
Wow, Sunday Sauce is my new favorite Italian Cookbook, I just love it. It’s filled with lots of great recipes and animated stories that bring the food, the people, and places in Italian-American New York to life. I made Spaghetti & Meatballs and, Shoemaker Chicken alla Scarpariello, and Spaghetti Marinara and my friends and family loved them all.
The recipes are well written and easy to follow and the author writes with great passion so when you read you get quite excited and can’t wait to cook and eat each recipe, one and all. That to me is the sign of a great writer who knows his craft, and is what I look for in a cookbook, and Daniel Bellino does the job quite well, and that’s why Sunday Sauce is my knew favorite Italian Cookbook. I highly recommend it to anyone and all. If you love Italian Food and cookbooks, you’re sure to love Sunday Sauce.
