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.

those aren’t secret to me and chicken liver is better than bouillon
Gravy.
Instead of chicken bouillon. Add some beef broth. Will taste like you slow cooked it for hours
I always put grape jelly n my chili.been doing it for do many years. Cuts down on acid from tomatoes
The trouble with so many of these recipes is that it takes clicking forever to get to the recipe.
Grew some this year..came out so good only tomatoes i use
Did I miss red pepper flakes?
I put a little sugar in most everything…cuts the acid and brings out the flavor…my grandmother Mayo always did this.
One of my now deceased friends made the best goulash back in our day. She finally shared that she used sugar in her sauce and I started after that. Now I don’t because of diabetis, cut it out of everything I can and extra light on the sauce. Miss my friend, miss her cooking.
I use Splenda brown sugar since I became diabetic
I’ve always done this. Taught by my friend Italian grandmother. No one else knows what the flavor is but all love my sauce. Great secret.
I use sugar
Merlot and chicken bouillon
Love?
Black coffee
I quit reading when it said to follow a strict “regiment”.
This had to be one of the DUMBEST sites I have ever wasted time on!
Brown sugar is better
I NEVER MAKE ANT KIND OF PASTA WITHOUT PUTTING IN A GOOD TABLESPOON OF GRAPE JAM. MAKES A GREAT DEAL OF DIFFERENCE.
I use a dollop of cream cheese or yogurt to mine.
I use the dark cocoa, some roasted Saigon Cinnamon, as well as the wine. I taste my tomatoes to see how sweet they are to determine if I need to add some brown sugar in. For those who are diabetic as I am.. remember.. diabetes is learning to manage sugar not doing without sugar.. everything you eat becomes a sugar fuel at some point unless it is a protein. But if you want to you can always add something like Stevia in the Raw. Don’t sub in Aguave because that is like adding high fructose syrup.
Sugar and a splash of lemon juice .
Cocoa powder. If my sister enters a chili contest, she wins every time.
We always add a little cinnamon to our spaghetti meat sauce. It enhances the taste 🙂
A couple teaspoons of allspice is yummy. From my auntie’s recipe ♡
What is the secret ingredient? I have always made my sauce with those ingredients, no secret there. Did I miss something?
Save
Brown sugar
The secret ingredient is wine. A sweet wine. I use Mogen David or else a tbls of sugar. It cuts the acid fromt the tomatoes and gives a unique flavor
Read that expecting a great revelation, I use those “secret” ingredients all the time.
Just divide it in half or quarters
Jacque Garcia I ment the way they print them I love the way taste of home prints theirs
I always put a shake of cinnamon in mine….. don’t know who told me, but makes it delicious! Also, a teaspoon of sugar…
Both ‼️
Debra Ludecke Peach ..yes
Instead of sugar try adding a whole carrot and let it simmer. Remove the carrot before serving. Yum!
I also add chocolate to my chili! Maybe 1/4 cup to a gallon.
My question exactly. Don”t see no secret.
Well I think it’s just fine how ever you want to make your sauce we all have different taste buds
Brown sugar…
Me eather
Secret???
I think everyone has their own thing. I’ve worked in Italian restaurants, as well as others. One used oatmeal as their secret ingredient. Some use instant potato flakes to thicken sauces or soups. Use what works for your family. 🙂
I ALWAYS USE A GOOD TABLESPOON OF GRAPE JAM IT THAKES THE ACID BITE OUT.
I make huge batches of sauce at a time with about 40 meat balls, pork, and sausage. Freeze it in batches enough for a meals for a month or 2.
garlic, anchovies, sauteed in olive oil and served over vermicelli. always get double anchovies on my pizza.
Yeah, that would be a no on the chicken bouillon. I get my flavor and richness from 3 meat meatballs, pork steak or ribs, and hot italian sausage. Always the wine tho.
You’ve been watching The Sopranos too much.
Always sugar.
I think I’ll take tips from the beautiful Italian’s that know their sauce, who are posting 🙂
Anchovy paste and a dash of sugar and white wine
