Fast, Fresh Tomato Sauce

by:




Finish this sauce with a little olive oil and use it as is or use it to build a more complex sauce. For example, you could cook some minced onion or shallot in olive oil with rosemary (or parsley, basil, or oregano) and garlic, then add the tomato sauce and simmer for 20 minutes. You could finish it with a spoonful of cream or sharpen it with a few drops of aged balsamic vinegar.
