Cómo preparar Tomato Sauce
- Finely chop the onion and garlic.
- In a large saucepan or Dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
- Add the garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
- Add the crushed tomatoes, tomato paste, sugar, salt, oregano, and basil. Stir well to combine.
- Bring the sauce to a simmer, then reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for at least 3 hours, or up to 4 hours, stirring occasionally. The longer it simmers, the richer the flavor will be.
- Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Add more salt, sugar, or herbs to your liking.
- Once the sauce has reached your desired consistency, remove from heat and let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy!
