1. How to make Napolitano Spaghetti Sauce Prep Time: 10 minutes Cook Time: 30 minutes to 2 hours Serves: 4-6

2. Ingredients 4-5 large clove garlic, minced 5 cups fresh tomatoes (peeled & seeded) OR —2 28 ounce cans of San Marzano tomatoes 1 cup of fresh basil chopped 1 tablespoon fresh parsley pinch of fresh 1 teaspoon sea salt, preferably gray salt Pinch baking soda or sugar, if needed

3. Directions Heat the olive oil in a large pot over moderate heat. Add the parsley, basil and garlic and cook briefly to release their fragrance. Add the tomatoes, basil and salt Puree the tomatoes with an immersion blender or mash them Simmer briskly until reduced to a sauce like consistency,

4. How long do I simmer the sauce? 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. It can simmer 2 hours or so.

5. Mmmmmmm! Taste and adjust the seasoning. If the sauce needs a touch of sweetness, add the sugar and cook for 5 more minutes. Boil 1 pound of pasta 8-9 minutes. Ladle it with the sauce. Sprinkle with a bit of chopped basil and serve!
