Notes

  • Choose fresh, high-quality ingredients for the best results. Ripe tomatoes, fragrant garlic, and aromatic herbs will enhance the flavor of your sauce.
  • If your tomato sauce tastes too acidic, you can balance it out by adding a pinch of sugar or a splash of balsamic vinegar. Adjust the sweetness and acidity to your liking.
  • Cook the pasta until it is al dente, which means it should still have a slight firmness when bitten. Overcooked pasta can become mushy and lose its texture.
