Home Made Pasta Sauce

The trick in this simple recipe is to use real San Marzano tomotoes. Other than that, it is extremely easy!

Ingredients:
- 2 cans D.O.P. San Marzano tomatoes
- Garlic
- Olive oil

Cooking:
- Dice garlic, and saute garlic in olive oil until brownish. A dutch oven is a great pot to use for this.
- Puree tomatoes in food processor, and add to sauteed garlic. Careful it will splash when it hits the hot oil
- Simmer very low for about 1 hour, stirring very often.
- You will notice the tomatoes are done when there are orange-ish pools on top of the sauce. You can see these in the picture pretty well.
- Will not hurt to cook much longer if you want a thicker sauce.

Notes:

- San Marzano tomatoes come from San Marzano Italy. There are many San Marzano "style" that are quite good, but not exactly the right tomatoes. It's like a cabernet from Napa vs Central Valley. In general the Napa cabernets are better because of the growing conditions and soil. Real San Marzano tomatoes say "D.O.P." on the can, simple as that.
