How to Make Garden Spaghetti Sauce
- Finely chop 1 large onion, 2 celery stalks, and 1 green bell pepper. Sauté in 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat until softened, about 5-7 minutes.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup red wine vinegar, 1/4 cup granulated sugar, 2 tablespoons tomato paste, 1 teaspoon dried oregano, 1 teaspoon dried basil, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
- Add the vinegar mixture and 2 (28-ounce) cans of crushed tomatoes to the sautéed vegetables. Stir well to combine.
- Bring the mixture to a simmer, then reduce heat to low. Cook for 30-45 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened slightly, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
- Remove from heat and let the sauce cool slightly (about 15 minutes).
- Carefully transfer the sauce in batches to a blender. Puree until smooth. (Alternatively, use an immersion blender).
- Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. Serve immediately over your favorite pasta or freeze in individual portions for later.
