Best Marinara Sauce Recipe

incredibly easy and quick to make!

Authentic  Marinara Sauce

A good marinara sauce will have little pools of orangey-red olive oil floating on the surface, which provides a good deal of flavor and is ultimately absorbed by the pasta.

Ingredients

San Marzano Tomatoes

Fresh Garlic & Basil

Extra-Virgin Olive Oil

Salt & Crushed Red Pepper

Why San Marzano Tomatoes?

These elongated, vibrant red fruits originate from the volcanic soils near Mount Vesuvius in Italy, a factor that significantly contributes to their unique taste profile.

About Olive Oil

Extra virgin olive oil (EVOO) is the choicest of olive oils, and its inclusion in a recipe like marinara sauce can make a world of difference.

Instructions

mash the tomatoes, cook the garlic, add tomatoes, chili flakes, and salt - simmer and add basil.
