Recipe Ingredients:
- 2 (14.5 ounce) cans stewed tomatoes
- 1 (6 ounce) can tomato paste
- 4 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
- 6 tablespoons olive oil
- ⅓ cup finely diced onion
- ½ cup white wine
How To Make Marinara Sauce?
- Prepare the Sauce Base: Place stewed tomatoes, tomato paste, parsley, garlic, oregano, salt, and black pepper in a food processor; blend until smooth.
- Cook the Onions: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add diced onion and cook until softened, about 2 minutes.
- Combine and Simmer: Stir in the blended tomato mixture and white wine. Simmer, stirring occasionally, for about 30 minutes, until the sauce has thickened.
Recipe Tips :
- Use Fresh Herbs if Possible: Fresh parsley and oregano bring out a deeper flavor in the sauce. If you only have dried herbs, use half the amount listed.
- Blend Smoothly for Best Texture: Blending the tomatoes and seasonings until completely smooth creates a rich, creamy sauce that’s easy to simmer down.
- Sauté Onions Slowly: Don’t rush the onions; cook them until soft but not browned. This adds sweetness and depth without overpowering the sauce.
- Simmer with a Lid Partially On: This keeps the sauce thick and reduces splattering. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking as it thickens.
- Taste and Adjust Seasoning at the End: Once the sauce has simmered, give it a taste. Add more salt, pepper, or herbs to suit your preference.
How To Store & Reheat Leftovers?
- Refrigerate: First, let the leftover marinara sauce cool to room temperature. Then, transfer it to an airtight container and store it in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
- Freeze: Let the marinara sauce cool completely before placing it in a freezer-safe container, leaving a little space for expansion. Freeze for up to 3 months.
- Reheat: Pour the marinara sauce into a saucepan and warm over low to medium heat, stirring occasionally until heated thoroughly.
