SALSA DI POMODORI, PROSCIUTTO, E CAPPERI (ITALIAN TOMATO SAUCE)



Salsa Di Pomodori, Prosciutto, E Capperi (Italian Tomato Sauce) image

(Tomato Sauce with Prosciutto and Capers) from Cucina di Calabria. Serve with fresh or dried taglairini (1/4 inch noodles) When I make this I substitute crushed tomato for the chopped because my family likes a smoother tomato sauce. Either is fine.

SALSA DI POMODORO



Salsa Di Pomodoro image

This spaghetti sauce recipe comes from "Extending the Table", a collection of recipes from around the world. The notes say that it comes from the Sicilian American community. Now I have to tell you, this is a GREAT recipe. My boys (husband and roommate) who will eat anything, but only give 5 stars to the recipes that are in danger of being inhaled, give this one 5 stars. I had to beat my husband to make him stop licking the crockpot! :) It tastes a little sweet, mostly savory, and very herby. Don't use more of the herbs than is listed, or they will overwhelm the sauce, though you can certainly use less.

Time 2h5m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 tablespoon olive oil
1/4 cup onions, chopped or 1 tablespoon onion powder
1 garlic cloves, minced (to taste) or 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder (to taste)
16 ounces tomato paste
3 cups water
2 teaspoons salt
1/4-1/2 teaspoon pepper
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon dried basil
1 bay leaf
2 teaspoons sugar
3 tablespoons dry red wine (optional)

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.

Tips:

  • Select ripe, flavorful tomatoes: Use the ripest, most flavorful tomatoes you can find for the best-tasting sauce. Look for tomatoes that are deep red and have a sweet aroma.
  • Use fresh herbs: Fresh herbs like basil, oregano, and thyme add a burst of flavor to the sauce. If you don't have fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs, but be sure to use about 1/3 of the amount of dried herbs as you would fresh.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the tomatoes, don't overcrowd the pan. This will cause the tomatoes to steam rather than fry, resulting in a watery sauce. Cook the tomatoes in batches if necessary.
  • Simmer the sauce: Once the tomatoes have been fried, simmer the sauce for at least 30 minutes. This will allow the flavors to develop and meld together.
  • Adjust the seasoning: Taste the sauce and adjust the seasoning as needed. Add more salt, pepper, or herbs until the sauce is to your liking.

Conclusion:

This classic Italian tomato sauce is a versatile and delicious condiment that can be used in a variety of dishes. It's perfect for pasta, pizza, or as a dipping sauce for bread or vegetables. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can easily make this delicious sauce at home.
