I made this last night and it was HEAVENLY! My four-year-old sat next to me with a bistro spoon and frequently scooping out samplings to slurp. I did too! I made a batch of Ina Garten’s classic meatballs and used some of the pomodoro sauce to cover the meatballs in and simmer them until they were cooked through. My husband and I made homemade egg pasta and made it into spaghetti noodles. I tossed the spaghetti noodles in the pomodoro sauce until it was just coated and put the meatballs on top. My husband said this is his favorite rendition of spaghetti that he has ever had. I am looking forward to the leftovers of this at lunchtime. I did add 1/4 teaspoon of baking soda to the sauce as I saw an Italian Mama explain in a youtube video that this helps cut some of the acidity in tomato sauces.

This has become my new weekly favorite dinner. I like my sauce chunky so I let the tomatoes heat through before breaking them up slightly in the sauce. I pour it over angel hair pasta and top it with a mixture of freshly grated Parmigiana Reggiano and Pecorino Romano cheeses. It is definitely my favorite pasta dish.

This was seriously the best pasta sauce I’ve ever had. My husband who says the best sauce he’s ever had was in Rome said this one tastes just like it! I can’t believe no one has commented here yet. I got the recipe off Pinterest and plenty of comments there on how delicious this recipe is. I followed the recipe for the most part- but may have added extra basil. I didn’t measure. I also puréed my San Marzano tomatoes in a food processor before adding them to the onions and garlic and the texture was perfect and kept the onions intact. Just a preference. I am so thrilled to find this recipe- way better than some in my authentic Italian cookbooks! Thanks!
