Tomato Sauce
Servings: 3 cups | Time: 10 minutes
Tomato sauce is a mother sauce, you can’t leave culinary school without knowing how to make it. In life it should be the same way. Tomato sauce is a base to so many soups, stews and braises. Tomato sauce is also perfect on its own. I love this tomato sauce, because it’s easy, uses fresh ingredients and it’s delicious.
