Best Italian Tomato PASTA SAUCE RECIPE - Sugo al Basilico
INGREDIENTS:
Extra virgin olive oil
Onion
Celery
Carrot
75-100g/2.6 - 3.5oz fresh basil leaves
2.5kg/10.42 cups Homemade passata/Store bought OR Peeled/chopped Italian tomatoes
UTENSILS:
Sharp knife
Chopping board
Hand blender
Medium - large size pot
Wooden spoon
METHOD:
1. Tomato basil pasta sauce is made with a “Soffrito” which is a blend of fresh ingredients used at the very beginning of the recipe.
2. To make the soffrito, chop up 1 carrot, 100g onion and 1 celery stalk (including the leaves!).
3. Add all of these ingredients into the base of a hand blender with 100ml of extra virgin olive oil, until it becomes beautiful and creamy, like a puree. This will form a flavoursome base for your tomato basil pasta sauce.
4. Next, turn the stove on to a very gentle heat and place the pot on top. Add 3-4 tablespoons of EVOO and pour in the soffrito mix.
5. Gently stir the soffrito so it covers the base of the pot, cover it with a lid and leave it to simmer for 15-20 minutes.
6. If you are using chopped or peeled tomatoes, blend them up so they become a beautiful thick passata. If you are using homemade or store bought passata to make your tomato basil pasta sauce, then you can skip this step!
7. After ten minutes, the soffrito will start to darken in colour. Stir it using a wooden spoon (making sure it is not burning) and then leave it to simmer for at least another 5 minutes.
8. When the soffrito is ready, mix through the tomato passata and stir very well using a wooden spoon.
9. Sprinkle 10g/2.2 teaspoons of rock salt and some black pepper and mix through.
10. Now, just cover the tomato basil pasta sauce with a lid and leave it to simmer slowly for 1-1.5hr, remembering to stir it every now and then.
11. After 1hr, remove the lid and leave it for another 30-45min, simmering it without the lid.
VINCENZO’S PLATE: It is important to let the sauce simmer without the lid so that the sauce does not become watery and by uncovering it, the steam will leave the pot and allow the sauce to thicken even more.
12. The finishing touch for this perfect homemade tomato and basil sauce is adding fresh basil at the very end. You can cut this up small or large depending on your preference - just make sure you don’t cut it with a knife! Add it with your hands before mixing through and leave this to infuse while the sauce is still hot - but the stove is now off.
HOW TO SERVE:
Enjoy this tomato basil pasta sauce however you like it! Use it with your favourite pasta, enjoy it on a pizza base, smother it over your chicken cacciatore, no matter how you use your sauce, it will add another whole level of flavour to your next meal.
E ora si mangia, Vincenzo’s Plate…Enjoy!

This is not a cooking video...this is a symphony of ingredients, love, passion and science. I love it ❤
Wow, thank you! Your words make me so happy ❤
🥰🥰🥰🥰🇨🇱🇨🇱🇨🇱🤪🤪🤪🤪
haha true
@@vincenzosplate How long can I save it in the refrigerator , if I put it in a jar or bottle?
@@vincenzosplate you got me when you said ‘make love together’ 👏🏽👏🏽
I made the sauce tonight. I have been trying different recipes forever trying to nail it. It happened. This is it. NAILED IT. Thank you!!! Amazing sauce.
WOW 🤩 I'm super glad you have finally found THE recipe, thanks to my video 😍
th-cam.com/video/W6qHTZ-8cMk/w-d-xo.html
Did your ingredients 'make love'??😂
I laughed my head off when he said that!😂
@@vincenzosplate Why no ise any Garlic?, many Italian natives use Garlic
Oregano is a MUST! And garlic!
this is the best tomato sauce on the planet. i’ve been making it this way ever since the video came out. i must confess i do take 2 small cloves of garlic and make it into a paste with some sicilian sea salt adding it to soffritto after it has cooked for 15-20 minutes. always use the san marzano tomatoes i process them in a food mill, perfect consistency every time. blending the vegetables with the extra virgin olive oil for the soffritto is brilliant. there are other tomato sauces out there that are very good, this one is simply the best. well done Vincenzo. greetings from Long Island. - Tim
I'm going to try this next Sunday sauce I make. I need garlic in mine so glad to hear someone else tried that.. I also sometimes throw a bone in there but I feel like it's not needed with this sauce
I was surprised he didn’t use garlic or any other Italian herb. Just wondering what pasta would go with this, best he didn’t tell us. Lol.
Going to make it tonight.
@@samcohen1625 I made it with garlic, and added a light amount of other herbs (oregano, but more of a mix), mostly just adding basil at the end. It was very good, though I prefer a sauce with a bone/meat in it and to cook longer. I'll be doing the blending step w/celery+carrots+onion+olive oil from now on, for sure.
Next level sauce. Absolutely fantastic. The added flavors from the carrots, onion, and celery can't be overstated. Wow.
Yes! I am Italian and I remember with pleasure when my grandmother cooked the tomato sauce and I ate half of it spreading it on hot bread! Perfect match 👌
Mamma mia! Bread + tomato sauce = heaven!!
I love it! 🤤
Hello Vincenzo i also tried this recipe of yours, once again perfect taste and the kitchen was smelling sooo beautiful, thanks once again!
Not sure why but you brought me right back with your comment. Litteraly made me emotional. Probably the best memories of my life, my Nonna cooking pasta and family having fun around an amazing plate of rigatoni and meatballs swimming in the best marinara sauce ever made. Oh and don't forget the romano. 🥲
@@sumeroo5689 Yes
@@simonmonty7171 yes if you have never had him me made speghetti sauce with fresh Italian bread. Hot preferably with butter. The sauce in a bowl so you can dip the bread in and hopefully have some homemade meatballs. You don’t need speghetti!! That’s a meal itself!! My kids always fought over who got to dip the first piece of bread to test the sauce to see if it was ready for a bowl! I’m making a pot of homemade speghetti sauce today and my youngest daughter is waiting impatiently with my grandson for grandpa to bring them some because they are sick. So naturally grandma is cooking for them. I haven’t made my homemade speghetti sauce in about 4 years since I had a stroke so the whole family is waiting for it. I’m making meatballs and sweet Italian sausage to go with it and sent my husband for some fresh bread! We live close to Philly, but he won’t go over the bridge to get real fresh Italian bread. But we’ll suffice with what he finds locally in south Jersey! It’s been simmering for a few hours and has a few more to go to be perfect!!!
My son has made this a few times now and it's brilliant. Very much like the sauce my Italian born mother and grandmother made. We are 100% Italian on both sides (and my husband was born in Italy! )and my mother called it gravy! Please don't get mad! Love your cooking style!
Hey there! So glad to hear that you enjoyed the recipe and that it reminded you of your Italian roots 🇮🇹 No worries about the terminology, everyone has their own way of doing things! Hope you keep enjoying the videos and recipes 🤗🍝
@@vincenzosplate Thank you so much! I've referred you and your TH-cam channel to several friends who now love it, too! My beloved, late mother would so approve of your true Italian cooking! Thank you for your dedication to our roots.❤️
Your passion for cooking just kicks it's way through the screen. Love it.
I’m really happy that my videos convey all my passion ❤️
Thank you Vincenzo! I have to say i have watched pretty much all of your video’s. You have taught me a lot over the last year.
I appreciate that! Please apply what you learned whenever you cook something in the kitchen and don't forget to share your gift with family and friends. Impress them with your talent.
I made this today, sort of..I used a whole onion, 3 cans of chopped toms, amount 60 ml of oil in total and also added garlic and oregano.. so I did stray from the recipe a little but wow what a beautiful thick delicious sauce. I’m so satisfied that I made it myself and its not full of sugar and preservatives, I’ll definitely be making it again and trying more of your recipes! I served mine on home made tagliatelle with a bit of pecorino / it was so good !
Happy to hear that! I suggest you to try this bolognese sauce then th-cam.com/video/Gyz7s3cFjZU/w-d-xo.html
I made this pasta sauce. Omg! Best pasta sauce I've ever had! The closest I can think of was this Italian restaurant I worked at when I was first year of uni. Absolutely delicious!
It's always nice to hear that people are enjoying my recipes. I'm happy that you found the sauce to be similar to the one you had at the Italian restaurant you worked at. That's a high compliment, and I'm honored that you think my sauce is comparable.
Vincenzo oh my lord! Just finished cooking this sauce and it turned out better than i could have hoped. Fiancee loves it. Many thanks for sharing!
Really?? Oh I’m so happy you liked it 😍😍🤤
Beautifully explained. Thank you 😊 for sharing this wonderful recipe. I'm making it for sure.
Thank you so much for the support. I hope you enjoy the recipe.
Half my freezer full of this sauce, all fresh from our garden. I cook it for about 6 hours lid off or till its reduced to a nice thick sauce . We stopped bottling the sauce, now we just put them in takeaway containers then in the freezer. Thanks for sharing people who try your recipe will love it.
Wow 6h,
your sauce is definitely very good I guess! 😍
I cook around 2L of this sauce per week, everyone around me loves it thank you for the recipe !!
oh yes this is incredibly delicious 😋
Thank you Vincenzo! All our love from Greece!
Many many thanks 🙏🏻
Thank you, Paisano for helping me get back to our roots through our lifeblood: FOOD 🙏
Can’t wait to start making these. A lot of what you say in your videos is what my mom (Neapolitan/Sicilian) also was taught growing up. A lot of our culture and cuisine got lost over the years
Thank you so much ❤️
He makes everything so simple and easy 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 and he's so clean 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Grazie Cristina! ❤️ are you going to try it?
@@vincenzosplate of course I am!!! And your meatballs with this sauce 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
I've been blending the soffritto for years and it really does make a huge difference. With enough olive oil it acts as an emulsifier and it also acts somewhat like a blond to light brown roux where the flavors develop and then helps thicken the sauce. It's a no brainer also from a production standpoint. It's much easier to blend than to do a small dice by hand.
Thank you Vincenzo for showing us how the real authentic Italian preparations are done on your channel. Really grateful for all these simple and mind blowing secrets that you share. Having tried this sauce and many other recipes you have shown, I can confidently say that Italian cooking at home has never been the same again!
how nice to receive comments like this, they make me thankful to have followers like you! ❤️ and make me even happier with the work I do!
@@vincenzosplate please do keep continuing with the awesome videos sir 🙏 look forward to many more such!
I've been trying to make a great pasta sauce for many years, having flirted with buying San Marzanos in the past, experimenting with all sorts of things, and nothing's got it as good as this. The mixture of the pureed, gently cooked soffrito, pre-blended good tomatoes (I bought some 2.5kg San Marzano tins) and gentle hour with the lid on seem to be the big secrets. A truly lovely sauce, thank you so much!
Absolutely amazing! my husband loves it! kept repeating how lovely this recipe is. Thank you for sharing...
wow, have you tried my recipe?
Anyway, italian sauce is definitely the best 😋
I have made my own sauce for over 50 years because moving to the south, what they consider pasta sauce tastes like it comes out of a franco american spaghetti can. Although I love my sauce recipe, even my son in law loves it and he's a great cook, this knocks it out of the park. Delicious!! Thanks so much for sharing. I really love your videos.
WOW this sauce is just a heaven. Even with normal (supermarket) tomatoes it taste just great. My favorite, So simple so delicious. Thanks.
oh yes, this is amazing🤤 everyone needs to try it!!
Vincenzo! This sauce was amazing. Came out exactly as you demonstrated here. One of the best sauces I ever made.
Vincenzo, I love watching you cook.... I learn SO much. You not only tell your audience what to use, you explain WHY you use these ingredients. This is very important to understand why only certain ingredients will work. I am a big fan of your from Virginia in the USA. Thank you for your posts.
Thank you so much Garry! I love what I do And I'm glad to share everything that I know with you ❤️
Is the heat left on low for the entire duration off the cook?
Exactly!
Nothing will ever smell and taste as good to me then fresh pasta sauce. My grandmother made such good spaghetti, I'd get off the bus from school and the house would smell amazing!
There's something truly special about the aroma and flavor of homemade pasta sauce, especially when it's made by someone you love. Those childhood memories of your grandmother's spaghetti sound wonderful. Food has a way of bringing back cherished moments. 🍝👵🏼🏡💕
Brilliant recipe, I made this sauce once by adding a bit of sugar and garlic, & another time exactly as in the video. I think it is a matter of taste, but I preferred the one with garlic and a dash of sugar
Great recipe. My wife and I loved the sauce. Thanks Vicenzo for sharing
oh wow, it was a pleasure for me! And I'm super glad you loved this sauce 😋
This is almost identical to my great grandmother's recipe! Classic, simple, delicious! Well done!
wow, sounds amazing! This is so good 😋
Made this sauce for lunch today! I give it Michelin🌟 It was unbelievable! Thank you sooooo much 👌🏼♥️
Faaantastic 😍 I love to hear that and I'm glad you LOVED this recipe 🤩 thank you so much!
Perfect....I put it all in crock pot overnight, and blend next day...smooth like the sauce should be..ty
Hope you enjoy! Let me know how it goes. Happy cooking!
I love the idea of the Sofrito. I always use fresh sweet cherry tomatoes 🍅 I blend them and strain the skins and the seeds, so so delicious 😋 thank you for the tip.
yummy, sounds delicious 😋
It was a plesure!
My husband makes a Sofrito that is Puerto Rican. We use it as a seasoning base to many of our meals. We make it in batches and freeze it in mason jars.
and what does he use for the sauté?
@Vincenzo's Plate sazon haha
It's a must have base for so many things.
MAGNIFICENT recipe…excellent ingredients, yes, FRESH BASIL…SOFRITO…THANK YOU! I use this recipe weekly for my family!
Wonderful! I'm so glad you love this recipe. I hope you'll make this one soon.
Made this beautiful sauce on Sunday and my wife and I LOVED it! Not bad for a first attempt; I am looking forward to improving my technique and will definitely be making this again. I have learned a lot from your videos, thank you. I really want to try your Nonna's amazing lasagne next! 👍
Wow, thank you so much Mark, I’m happy you and your wife loved this sauce! 😋
Now you can only get better 👏🏻
Making this right now with Italian tomatoes even before cooking it the combination is delicious!
Happy to help eheh ❤️❤️
Hi! We call it TUCO! I learned from my Nonna Pepina (who was from Capo D'Orlando) . My father continued the tradition to cook Tuco with many tomatoes. Here in Peru we can get italian tomatoes. Instead basil we use bay leaves :) But I tried with basil too. Soooo delicious!! Thank you for this video! It remember us we are italian people!
Wow deliciousssss 😍😍😋😋
@@vincenzosplate ♥
I made this and it was absolutely fantastic! Especially to dip the PALOTTE CACIO E UOVA in. Magnificent! I canned a lot of it last fall and it only lasted six months. I'm doing double the amount this fall.
That's wonderful to hear! 😄🇮🇹 Pairing this pasta with PALOTTE CACIO E UOVA sounds like a heavenly combination. Doubling up on the canning is a smart move. Enjoy your delicious homemade Italian treats! 🍝🧀🍳👌
I just made this sauce today and OMG thanks Vincenzo it was awesome. Everyone in the family loved it.
WOW I'm happy to hear that! 😍
Wow this is an incredible sauce! I made it exactly as you did but with a 28oz of crushed tomatoes (US) and Dried basil becuase i didn’t have fresh. Thank you!
Vincenzo Grazie!! Thank you for sharing this video, I really like your recipe and myself and my family are going to try making it, and of course some beautiful fresh pasta! Boun Apetito!!
Thanks

I made the sauce 6 times and is best ever.
Thank you, your recipe is #1.

Sauce is perfect!👍👍👍👍

I was looking for a good Italian sauce to make and came across your video. This sauce looks so good! I will make it the next time I have pasta. Thank you for showing us how!
yes please try this recipe soon 😍 I'm sure you will love it!
I'm making this know with my tomatoes from te garden. I made the Sofritto like you did and chopped up the tomatoes and mixed them with the soffrito. After 20 minutes all of it was blend together. Little salt and pepper and let it simmer for an hour. Then the basil went in and let it mildly simmer it without the lid for another hour. Then I seasoned it to taste. It's insane that good.... Oke I didn't use tinned Italian tomatoes / passata but it turned out great.
Clicked thinking I know it all. Learned a lot. Grateful. Thank you!
wow, I'm glad it was helpful! Many many thanks ❤️
idid know nothing but iam excited to try
Good job Mr/Mrs Watts👌
Why no garlic in this recipe tho ?
@Wulfric Looking for errors.🤣
This was a very good sauce !
Excellent with fresh from the garden tomato 🍅🍅🍅😁
That sounds absolutely delightful! 🍅🍅🍅 Fresh tomatoes from the garden can take a sauce to a whole new level. I'm thrilled to hear you enjoyed it! 😄🇮🇹🍝😁
I just made this and it’s the best marinara sauce I have ever tasted. The soffrito was easy and made all the difference. Thank you for sharing
wow amazing! I'm really happy you loved it 😍 with which pasta did you serve it? 😋

thank you
I am attempting to make this sauce as i type. But, i don't have a pot big enough for all that sauce, I was only able to use a little over 1 1/12 kilos of canned tomatoes. I hope it still comes out good!
No worries! Adjusting the recipe to fit your pot should still yield a delicious sauce. Just keep the proportions of the other ingredients in mind and adjust them accordingly.
I made this last night for today, for my girlfriend and me. Best pasta I ever had, also used the tips from the 10 mistakes when cooking pasta, different world.
I want to thank you Vincenzo, I learned spices just accompliment the sauce, the taste should come from the ingredients itself
Usually put garlic salt, celery salt and chilli, stuff like that... horrible abominations I created there haha
Not anymore! ♥
Glad you found the recipe helpful! Exciting to hear about your progress with pasta. Keep experimenting with spices and remember, quality ingredients are key 🍝👨🍳
Wow!!! Thank You for Sharing this recipe !!!! Yum, Looks absolutely Delicious !
many thanks to you! Are you going to try this recipe? 😋
Your channel is like angels handing you the secrets of heaven, i tried your foccacia recipe and impressed many guests today. I can't wait to make this sauce, been looking for a while for this recipe!

Please make it as soon as possible, and let me know 😋
@@vincenzosplate tried it last night, it has a really, really authentic taste and is ao easy to make!!! Thank you Vincenzo! You are my hero!!
I can't thank you enough for this video. I've been searching for how to make a tomato basil sauce with a soffritto base - the right way. Finally, I found out. You nailed it. When it comes to Italian cuisine, you're the best!
Aw thank you so much for the love and support! It means a lot to me!
Aw thank you so much for the love and support! It means a lot to me! 😊
Holy Moly, I just made this and DAMMM it tastes AMAZING 🤩
Usually I struggle to get the right taste and consistency but not after using your recipe 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
Wooow I’m super glad to hear that 😍 great job my friend!!
My husband bought too many tomato s today was searching for sauce recipe, I liked yours thank you from India
My pleasure 😊 I hope you enjoy recreating this amazing tomato sauce recipe. It’s a very versatile sauce that fits really well with the dishes you plan on making for this.
Just made this sauce. It’s absolute perfection! 😍 thank you, Vincenzo!
Wow I’m so glad you loved it!
I made your sauce tonight, I took my time and followed all of your instructions. I was against the soffritto but after l pureed the soffritto, l was willing to try it this way .
I have just tasted it now, I have been making it over the last three hours and I have to say my sauce is thick and it tastes amazing if only I could send you a picture I would, because I have taken a photograph of it, tomorrow as it is late in Australia, I will make my own gnocchi and I will put the sauce on the gnocchi and of course it will be topped with grated parmigiano regianno, I only wish that you could taste it because it tastes amazing. It really does if it didn’t I would say so.
Thank you so much for sharing your secret sauce! I will definitely make! Growing San Marsano tomatoes in my garden 😊
Sounds great! How nice that you can grow san marzano tomatoes in your garden! 😍 Please make it and let me know!
This is the video I've been waiting to find! THANK YOU VINCENZO!!
Made this sauce 3 times already without changing a thing. Loved it.
wow, I love to hear that! Thank you a lot ❤
Thank you Vincenzo!!! Love it. I get many compliments
Wow this is great 👏🏻 well done ❤️
Well Vincenzo, I made this sauce tonight. I didn't blend the onion, carrot and celery, but I did chop them finely by hand. I kind of like chunky. This sauce was superb! It tastes very sunny. The only thing wrong with it is you failed to warn that the tomatoes EXPLODE when crushing them by hand!😁 I had tomato guts all over my counter!! THANK YOU VINCENZO!!!
Glad you enjoyed the sauce! Apologies for the tomato explosion, but it's all part of the fun. 😅 Keep cooking and making delicious memories! 🍅👨🍳
Hi, Vincenzo! Huge fan here from the Philippines. I have made a passata so that I can eat pasta (Preferably linguine) at work when it's lunch time. Quick question here: Would it be ok if I can omit the sofrito from the recipe for the true, made by a nonna, pasta sauce? Also, I used dried basil since basil is like luxury in the country that I live in. Would that be ok? Thanks if you will answer this.
Also, you are the reason why I started loving and appreciate pastas like a true Italian. Thanks for your videos!
Ciao! Grazie mille for your kind words and support-I'm thrilled to hear that you've found a love for pasta through my videos!
Regarding your question, omitting the sofrito from the pasta sauce recipe should be fine. While sofrito adds depth of flavor, you can still achieve a delicious sauce without it. As for using dried basil, it's a common substitution when fresh basil isn't readily available, so don't worry! Just be sure to adjust the quantity to taste, as dried herbs can be more potent than fresh
Finally i can now do it myself! Thank you! love it.
Glad I could help! 🙏🏻
Vincenzo, we are from the exact same region.. WELL, my family is from the same region (Abruzzo) and while my mom was born in the US, her nonna lived in Italy and she made the best sauce. My mom was very young when she lost her, but she will never be able to untaste her sauce and meatballs. I make such a good sauce, but she lately has told me nothing compares to her nonna! Of course I understand, but sadly she has no tips for me since she was so young. My mom doesn't cook anymore (she's nearing 70 and still works and is just always tired) and I just can't find a recipe that makes her happy. I know she used fresh tomatoes and basil, and I've tried and tried. I love the blended sofrito in this video and I will be trying it this week! Please let me know if you have any other tips. I've been cooking since I was a kid, am a fantastic cook and my mom has always said I should have a restaurant, but I'm just broken that I'll never compare to nonna 😢😭
Your passion and accuracy is fascinating! love it, and will make it this week 💥🤩 BTW, new subscriber from Iran 🤩
welcome aboard! Please try this recipe soon 😍
Making this right now! Looks amazing and i hope mine comes out something similar to yours! Thank you Don Vicenzo!
You've got this! 👨🍳👍 Enjoy cooking, and I hope it turns out just as delicious. Thank you for giving the recipe a try! 🇮🇹🍝
Thanks! I have an Italian store near to me and they import everything. I'll have to make this because there is nothing like good pasta on a winter's day. Beautiful and easy to make!
wow you're really lucky!
Please try it and let me know 😋
Thank you. If I buy canned crushed tomatoes do I need to blend it? Also where can I buy your sauce from?
You're welcome! If you buy canned crushed tomatoes, you typically don't need to blend them further unless you prefer a smoother consistency.
Vincenzo, thank you for sharing this secret with me. This is the best and simplest sauce I have ever had the pleasure of making. Your wisdom has blessed me I will never make sauce the old way again. Love and peace you absolute legend. Xo
omg thank you very much .❤ I'm super glad you loved this recipe 😍
I'm growing my own San Marzano tomatoes this year and plan to use them to try this recipe out. Do you have any tips for working with tomatoes? Would I need to peel them before blending?
Unfortunately in Algeria we haven't Italian tomatoes but I tried your recipe and it was very delicious, thank you Sir 😍♥
amazing! That means you did a great job ☺️ thank you Maya ❤️
But we have a better olive oil sis 🤫

Hello Vincenzo. Watching from 🏴 Scotland.
Can I put this sauce in glass jars and boil to lock them? Or would be okay and easier to freeze it?
I want to make a big batch
Thanks ❤
Omg! It’s midnight I’m making your sauce lol watching you has inspired me too cook again ❤️
Oh wow, this makes me soo happy Linda 🙏🏻❤ thank you very much!
I made the sauce yesterday, oh boy my children loved it with spaghetti. Greetings from Johannesburg RSA
I love your passion. I make my sauce exactly the same way and agree to cook the sauce slow.
Yay thank you!!
So you make the best tomato sauce 😁😍
Thanks for the video! Would you know if the base sauce you made with the onion, carrot, and celery can be canned to use later on?
Thank you for this beautiful sauce. I stumbled upon it, and my family absolutely loved it. Indeed, this guy is good. This guy is sharing the secret with me :)))
wow 🤩 I'm super glad you and your family loved this sauce! Thank you 😘
I have so much basil in my garden. I can't wait to test this method out.
Wonderful! Please try it and let me know!
I made the sauce with my sister tonight! It was the best thing I’ve ever had! Thanks so much Vincenzo!!!!!! I love this recipe!!! 😊❤🎉😊🎉❤❤
Looks amazing, going to make that soon, what’s the best way to store it?

Love this and going to make it for my spaghetti and meatballs. I've made a file just for your recipes, so I can watch them all, on my TV. You look great on 72 inch TV hahaha. Have a great weekend.
If I can suggest you a recipe, there’s my Italian “spaghetti meatballs”,
where the meatballs are smaller, try it with this sauce and let me know! 😋

I found that it's best to let the sauce cool before eating it, as that gives it time for the flavors to really come out. Delicious! All three of my children are learning to make this sauce.
That's a fantastic approach! Allowing the sauce to cool and letting the flavors meld is a great way to enhance the taste. It's wonderful to hear that you're passing down the tradition to your children, creating beautiful memories together. Buon appetito and may your cooking adventures continue to be enjoyable and memorable! 👨🍳🇮🇹❤️👩🍳👨🍳👶🍝
