MARINARA



Marinara image

My mother, who was Italian American, called marinara sauce "gravy." She made this marinara sauce recipe in big batches several times a month, so it was a staple on our dinner table. A mouthwatering aroma filled the house each time she cooked it. -James Grimes, Frenchtown, New Jersey

THE BEST MARINARA SAUCE



The Best Marinara Sauce image

I developed this recipe with a friend to make the most of a bumper crop of tomatoes. Now we like to make huge batches-we're talking 220-pounds-of- tomatoes huge-and then give jars along with a pound of pasta as gifts around the holidays. Knowing this sauce is made from the heart with the best possible ingredients makes me feel good about giving it to my family and friends. -Shannon Norris, Cudahy, Wisconsin

Time 30m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

Vegetable oil, for frying
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 large egg
1 cup finely crushed garlic and herb pita chips (about 1 1/2 cups whole chips)

EASY MARINARA DIPPING SAUCE FOR THE LAZY



Easy Marinara Dipping Sauce for the Lazy image

For those of us who don't like sauces laden with tomato chunks (much as I like tomato-based foods, tomato chunks just gross me out!) and also happen to be way too lazy to peel and cut tomatoes (that's what cans are for.) For some variation ideas try replacing one of the cans of tomato sauce with tomato paste if you like it thicker. Like it really spicy? Replace one plain can with one can of pre-seasoned tomato sauce. Yummy dipping sauce for mozzarella sticks, serve 1/4 cup in a ramekin. Recommended dishes to have with this sauce: Recipe #394477, Recipe #30977, and Recipe #91274 if making pretzel cheese logs!

Time 10m

Yield 2 cups, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 (8 ounce) cans tomato sauce
1 1/2 teaspoons olive oil
3/4 teaspoon basil
3/4 teaspoon oregano
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 garlic clove, minced (1/2 tsp liquid garlic)
1 tablespoon sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 dash white pepper

Steps:

  • Blend all the ingredients together in a food processor or blender.
  • To gently heat, pour 1/4 cup (or the desired amount) into a microwave-safe ramekin or container, and put a paper plate over it so tomato splats won't get all over the microwave. Nuke for 30 seconds on 50% power. You may have to adjust up or downward depending on microwave strength.
