Michael Chiarello's Marinara Sauce image

I still had some tomatoes left from a sale and needed to use them up. I found this recipe on Food Network from Michael Chiarello. It's very simple but fresh and flavorful. I'm freezing this for the next recipe that requires a marinara sauce.

Time 28m

Yield 4 cups, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1/2 cup onion, minced
1 tablespoon fresh Italian parsley, chopped
1 large garlic clove, minced
4 cups tomato puree, fresh
1 basil, stem large and fresh with leaves removed
1 teaspoon sea salt, preferably gray salt
1 pinch baking soda or 1 pinch sugar, if needed

Steps:

  • Heat the olive oil in a large non-reactive pot over moderate heat.
  • Add the onion and saute until translucent, about 8 minutes.
  • Add the parsley and garlic and cook briefly to release their fragrance.
  • Add the tomatoes, basil, and salt.
  • Simmer briskly until reduced to a sauce like consistency, stirring occasionally so nothing sticks to the bottom of the pan.
  • The timing will depend on the ripeness and meatiness of your tomatoes and the size of your pot.
  • If the sauce thickens too much before the flavors have developed, add a little water and continue cooking.
  • Taste and adjust the seasoning. If the sauce tastes too acidic, add the baking soda and cook for 5 more minutes. If it needs a touch of sweetness, add the sugar and cook for 5 more minutes.
  • Remove the basil stem before serving.
