CLASSIC MARINARA SAUCE



Classic Marinara Sauce image

Homemade marinara is almost as fast and tastes immeasurably better than even the best supermarket sauce - and it's made with basic pantry ingredients. All the tricks to a bright red, lively-tasting sauce, made just as it is in the south of Italy (no butter, no onions) are in this recipe. Use a skillet instead of the usual saucepan: the water evaporates quickly, so the tomatoes are just cooked through as the sauce becomes thick. (Our colleagues over at Wirecutter have spent a lot of time testing skillets to find the best on the market. If you're looking to purchase one, check out their skillet guide.)

Time 25m

Yield 3 1/2 cups, enough for 1 pound of pasta

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 28-ounce can whole San Marzano tomatoes, certified D.O.P. if possible
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
7 garlic cloves, peeled and slivered
Small dried whole chile, or pinch crushed red pepper flakes
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 large fresh basil sprig, or 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano, more to taste

Steps:

  • Pour tomatoes into a large bowl and crush with your hands. Pour 1 cup water into can and slosh it around to get tomato juices. Reserve.
  • In a large skillet (do not use a deep pot) over medium heat, heat the oil. When it is hot, add garlic.
  • As soon as garlic is sizzling (do not let it brown), add the tomatoes, then the reserved tomato water. Add whole chile or red pepper flakes, oregano (if using) and salt. Stir.
  • Place basil sprig, including stem, on the surface (like a flower). Let it wilt, then submerge in sauce. Simmer sauce until thickened and oil on surface is a deep orange, about 15 minutes. (If using oregano, taste sauce after 10 minutes of simmering, adding more salt and oregano as needed.) Discard basil and chile (if using).

MARINARA

My mother, who was Italian American, called marinara sauce "gravy." She made this marinara sauce recipe in big batches several times a month, so it was a staple on our dinner table. A mouthwatering aroma filled the house each time she cooked it. -James Grimes, Frenchtown, New Jersey

FRESH TOMATO MARINARA SAUCE



Fresh Tomato Marinara Sauce image

A rich, flavorful sauce that is healthy. Great for use in pasta, lasagna, and other casseroles. My favorite way to eat it is to pour over raw zucchini 'pasta' for an extra-fresh and tasty meal that's very healthy, too! A great recipe for using up extra-ripe tomatoes from your garden. Double the batch and freeze half; it freezes well.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, ripe tomatoes. This will give your soup the best flavor. If you can't find fresh tomatoes, you can use canned tomatoes, but be sure to choose high-quality tomatoes that are packed in tomato juice, not water.
  • Roast the tomatoes before making the soup. Roasting the tomatoes will concentrate their flavor and make them sweeter.
  • Use a variety of herbs and spices. This will give your soup a complex flavor. Some good options include basil, oregano, thyme, garlic, and red pepper flakes.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment. There are many ways to make tomato soup, so feel free to adjust the ingredients and proportions to suit your own taste.

Conclusion:

Tomato soup is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed year-round. It's a great way to use up fresh tomatoes, and it's also a good source of vitamins and minerals. Whether you're looking for a quick and easy weeknight meal or a cozy soup to warm you up on a cold day, tomato soup is a great option.
