The BEST authentic Italian tomato sauce recipe you will ever try! And I ain't kiddin.

Ingredients:
2 cans (28-oz) whole peeled San Marzano plum tomatoes
1/4 cup olive oil
1 onion, diced
4 cloves garlic, finely minced
1 teaspoon salt
2 tbls sugar
1/2 teaspoon dried Italian herbs
pinch of red pepper flakes
1 teaspoon white wine vinegar
1 tablespoon tomato paste
water as needed
Mix butter into sauce

Dice onions and mince garlic. Put onions in pan with a tablespoon of sugar, half teaspoon salt, and a tablespoon of olive oil. Caramelize onions to a dark brown, if the onions start to dry out just add enough water to moisten things up a bit. At the very end add your minced garlic to give the garlic a very light brown color. Be careful to not overcook garlic as it will get bitter. A minute at most.

Now just simply put all ingredients in non reactive pot making sure to remove the grape leaves from the San Marzano tomatoes. Simmer for an hour to an hour and a half to desired consistency. Turn off heat and stir in butter for a richer sauce.

Of course more sugar can be added for a sweeter sauce, pepper can be added or omitted as you please.

Me and my girlfriend enjoy this right as it is on spaghetti or she makes a killer cheese manicotti covered and baked in it. You can puree it smooth and use it as marinara. It's so good! Hope you enjoy!
