Italian tomato sauce

[bucolic_frolic]

2. A couple ideas

Try getting into sauce recipes from restaurant suppliers. There are still suppliers that source solely from Italy. Check NYC area, or Bova I think is one I heard of. As to whether anyone's cracked the formula .......

Also. Spices. Italian Blend usually has rosemary, marjoram, basil, oregano. I personally add black pepper, pink salt, cumin, and absolutely must have ground red pepper to give it a flavor spike.

Recently I made a fresh sauce but didn't have enough tomatoes. I used plum tomatoes. I did have an orange pepper. Threw it all in the blender. No one could have guessed a pepper was in there, but it did have a fresh spike to it.

Ask AI. As if they know anything.
