(Source: Taste of Home, Dec./Jan. 2004) Athena in DE ===== For Sally from PA. who wants a good spaghetti sauce recipe. Here's one from an Italian grandmother. NANA'S SPAGHETTI SAUCE (SUGO) 2 28 oz. cans tomato puree or crushed tomatoes 3 28 oz. cans water about 3 or 4 TBSP. Olive Oil 1 large onion, chop fine 2 or 3 green onions, chopped 2 or 3 garlic cloves, chop fine 1 6 oz. can tomato paste 4 6 oz. cans water ½ teasp. baking soda 2 TBSP. salt Dash of black pepper 1 TBSP. sugar (or more if needed) Dash hot sauce 4 or 5 leaves fresh basil, chop fine or a pinch of dried basil, ( crush with fingers) In 8 quart saucepan, put a little olive oil , then the 2 cans puree and 3 cans water, stir, then bring to a boil, turn down to medium low and simmer. Put olive oil in a large skillet, and saute the onions until golden, add garlic and cook a few seconds more. Add tomato paste and cook about 10 minutes, stirring often. Add the 4 cans water, blend completely, bring to a boil, then add to simmering puree. Add the rest of ingredients and simmer uncovered about 2 or 3 hours, stirring occasionally. After it has cooked about 1 hour, add meatballs, etc. I like to add some beef with bone in such as short ribs. Also, you can add pork ribs or Italian sausage for a different flavor. I also like to add a peeled medium potato at the same time, it's supposed to absorb the acid from the tomato sauce.
