It’s more like an experience. I make marinara sauce all the time that rivals any homemade sauce and beats out the jarred sauces hands down but I could not tell you how I make it. We grow all our own tomatoes, onions, garlic and herbs for one. I cook, I don’t measure it’s all approximation, I taste and correct. A good marina takes all day cooking, at least, rest time for the ingredients to ‘marry’ together is something most don’t do, add another day.

Just got done turning 9 pounds of Roma’s into a sauce for the Christmas lasagna.
