Salsa Di Pomodoro Recipes

SUGO DI POMODORO (AUTHENTIC ITALIAN TOMATO SAUCE)

Steps:

• Heat oil in a saucepan over low heat. Add onion and garlic. Cook and stir until soft and translucent, about 5 minutes. Add passata, basil, and salt. Cover and simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until tomato sauce has thickened, about 20 minutes. Remove garlic halves before serving.

BELLISSIMA SALSA DI POMODORO

Steps:

• Cook the onion, garlic, celery, basil, and parsley in the olive oil in a large saucepan for 15 minutes over medium-low heat, or until all vegetables are soft, and the onion is see-through. Make sure the vegetables don't stick to the bottom of the saucepan.
• Next fold in the diced tomatoes and season with however much salt you crave. Bring to a calm boil over medium heat. Place a lid on the saucepan and simmer until a thick sauce is formed, about 30 minutes.
• Enjoy with any pasta type, or with any recipe needing tomatoe sauce :).

SALSA DI POMODORO

Steps:

• Saute onions and garlic in olive oil over medium heat.
• Add the rest of the ingredients. Add meatballs if you wish at this point.
• Bring sauce to a boil. Simmer 2-3 hours to mix the flavors.
• NOTE: This can also be made by placing everything in your slow cooker and simmering all day. This is how I made it. I would recommend sauteing the onions and garlic first. A triple batch filled my BIG (6 qt, I think) crockpot.
• TO FREEZE: Let sauce cool to room temperature, then pour into a labeled freezer bag. Seal, trying to get rid of as much air as possible in the process, and freeze flat. You can freeze with meatballs in or without.
• TO REHEAT: Thaw overnight in the fridge, or in the microwave, or in a bowl of warm water (still sealed in the bag), or just dump in a crockpot or pot on the stove frozen and warm gently.
