Equipment
- Two Medium Pots
Ingredients
- 28 oz Canned Whole Peeled Tomatoes Two smaller cans or one large one
- 1 Yellow Onion cut in half
- 5 Tbsp Unsalted Butter cubed
- 1 lb Pasta I like either spaghetti or angel hair
- Kosher salt
- Parmesan for finishing
Instructions
- Take a large sauce pan or pot and dump in: tomatoes, butter, and onion. Season lightly with salt.
- Set heat to medium-low. You want the sauce to start to simmer (small gentle bubbles.)
- We’re going to let it gently simmer for 45 mins. Initially, set a timer for 30 minutes. Throughout the simmering, stir with a wooden spoon. Mash the tomatoes up. Eventually, the onion will start to fall apart! That is a’ok! In fact, we want that to happen. Stir it occasionally.
- Once the 30-minute timer goes off, prepare an additional pot of salted water to cook the pasta in. Start with a teaspoon of salt in the water. You the water to taste slightly salty. Cook pasta according to package.
- Generally, once the pasta is done so is the sauce.
- Drain the pasta, mix it with the sauce and top it with fresh Parmesan!
Notes
I've also tried adding sliced garlic to the tomato sauce in the beginner. Whoo-wee it was good.
