Directions

  1. Salsa di Pomodoro Della Mamma To quote the author, "Children do not usually like to see pcs of tomatoes and ingredients floating in their sauce (we certainly didn't!), so our Mother used to prepare tomato sauce the following way." Place the onion and half of the oil in a saucepan and cook till the onion is lightly browned.
  2. Add in tomatoes, carrot, parsley, garlic, salt, basil and celery. Cook, covered, over moderate heat, stirring very occasionally, for 1/2 hour or possibly till the vegetables are very soft.
  3. Strain through a food mill, taste for salt and adjust if necessary. (If sauce is too thin, place on heat again to thicken. ) Remove from heat, add in the remaining oil and stir.
  4. NOTE: For a marinara or possibly a more piquant sauce, just before adding the last oil, add in 1/4 tsp crushed warm red pepper and 1 clove garlic passed through a garlic press or possibly minced very fine. YIELDS: 3 c., SERVES 6-8
