6. Homemade Tomato Sauce

Serves 10
Est. Preparation Time: 10 Mins
Est. Cooking Time: 30 Mins

Ingredients
3  Tablespoons olive oil
½  Cup finely chopped onions
3  Cloves garlic
1  Pound plum tomatoes pureed in a blender or a food mill
¼  Cup Chardonnay
1  Bay leaf
1  Teaspoon salt
½  Teaspoon sugar
Directions

Combine oil and onions in a saucepan. Cook until onion is fully tender and golden stirring frequently.

Add garlic and press the garlic in the heated oil a couple of times to release its flavor, until it barely begins to color and remove the garlic from the pan.

Add the tomatoes. Bring to a brisk simmer, stirring frequently for about 10 minutes.

Add the Chardonnay, salt and sugar. Adjust the heat as the sauce begins to thicken and reduce. Cook for another 15 minutes. Adjust to taste.

* This sophisticated tomato sauce will add a homemade flavor to the most simple pasta dish. For basic spaghetti sauce add a few torn basil leaves or parsley to the sauce while it is simmering.

ENJOY!
