Once You Find Out… You Will Never-Ever Go Back To That Store Bought Crap Again!
For some of my friends, making spaghetti at home means grabbing a box of pasta and a jar of sauce from the grocery store. For me, I absolutely love making a rich hearty sauce from scratch. I love using this recipe and then modifying it slightly to mix it up, so it doesn't taste the same every time I make it. Sometimes I add heavy cream to make it a vodka sauce or I add sausage or meat to bulk it up for the boys.
No matter what I do to change up this recipe, every time I make it I am transported to Italy. After you make this meal for your family, you will know exactly how I feel. And if you have a pasta maker, I high suggest you make your pasta from scratch for the ultimate dining experience at home.

A couple carrots cut the acid, remove before serving if u like. Old Italian fix, from Italian mother in law.
Sicilians taught you how to add the sugar. But me make Meatballs..that stuff, looks like chili to me.
Close..but use the “well” of your palm.(just under a tbl.spoon) Oregano is the Greeks. They can have it. Too bitter
I like it. I’ve got a ton growing outside and I’m going to use it, thanks.
Merlot is the secret ingredient
Buy good Tomatoes and you won’t need no Damn Sugar !
Amen, Yogi!
Sounds good
Mt secret is manwich that’s for sloppy joes. It’s the best added to other ingredients. Try it, you will be surprised
When you use cans of sauce, your sauce is not homemade.
Chicken bullion?
A little nutmeg makes the sauce delicious.
Just tell me what it is.
It says that its Merlot & Chicken Bouillon.
Me too
Sugar and/or cinnamon
Wow, I was close. Except for the chicken bullion, I will definitely be adding that next time 🙂
Tsp sugar and I use hot pepper flacks
Thanks y’all.
I don’t like a sweet sauce, I add lemon juice
I use a little vinegar
Italian seasoning, no sugar mentioned that I saw. Cinna Mon is good also!!!
I have added red wine to spaghetti sauce and gravy for years…just kicks up the flavor a bit…is very good!
How much?
Certified San Marzano tomatoes are the only tomatoes for me.
If you simmer long enough, sugar is not needed to reduce acidity.
It depends you can use a couple tablespoons to a handful. Depends on if you want to taste the sweetness. I believe I use more than my mom did. Just play with it and taste.
Merlot and chicken bullion. It says those are the secret ingredients on the second page before the recipe
Thank you.

Pork fat !!!
My father has made the best sauce our whole life and he always put in chicken bullion. It is a family favorite!!!
It’s so secret I can’t get it to load. Must be a boozy!
I add a little extra broth and boil my noodles in the sauce.
Your recipes look delicious but always discourage me because they r too big!! Can’t you fix that
Adding anchovies to the olive oil on medium low and letting them dissolve in the oil before adding anything else is the key to a good pasta sauce.
I agree with Lynn
Tracy Millhouse …I sent you a private message. I would love to share recipes!
Add a pinch of berbere powder instead !
Years ago I had good friend who made spaghetti sauce, sloppy joes and chili like everyone else. When she was finished she added good size chunk Velvetta cheese and stirred it in. Approx 2″ chunk per qt. Taste was delicious and it thickened the consistency to point it was never ‘drippy or watery’.
I do it on occasion especially with sloppy joe mixture. Taste is good.
It showed a picture but could not get to the recipe
Yum
I always add wine. I also shred in fresh carrots to add sweetness and/or a little sugar. Never heard of adding chicken bouillion
Stupid Fucking Page:( Just to get someone to look still don’t know what secret ingredient is if it is sugar I ALWAYS add some to mine:)
Gosh all you people that can’t read….I saw the secret ingredients were very obvious….
I didn’t see a secret ingredient
Merlot and chicken granules. Who knew?
Anchovies are all well and good if you like them, personally HATE them would never touch your sauce if you payed me
Mentioned just before the list of ingredients chicken bouillon and merlot
Good thing I wouldn’t pay you.
First of all I never never buy jar sauce I can my tomatoes to make my sauce ,and always make it from scratch the Merlot is is a good touch . As for the amount the recipe makes you can make as little or as much as you want or just freeze in containers for a future time . Tastes just as good as fresh made if done right
