How to make it

  • When the tomatoes begin to bubble, lower the heat to a slow but steady simmer;
  • Cook, stirring occasionally, for some 45 minutes or so until the tomatoes are no longer watery and the sauce has reduced;
  • The sauce is done when the butter has separated from the tomatoes and there is no remaining liquid.
  • Discard the onion and set aside;
  • BUT: could retain and eat according to taste - Your Choice;
  • Toss the cooked pasta with the sauce, add and mix in black pepper to taste and the grated Parmigiano-Reggiano

    This is a good basic tomato sauce. A hint of onion and on the sweeter side. It's not a marinara sauce that is typically made with garlic and fresh basil or meat style sauce, it's tomato sauce. I think the onions are great and prefer to keep them as opposed discarding.
