Neapolitan-Style Marinara Sauce Recipe

Recipe By The Spruce Eats

Though a slow-cooked "Pomarola" Tomato sauce that simmers for hours is certainly worth the time and effort, there are times when you want something quickerthat's when this classic neapolitan tomato sauce, known as "Marinara" In the u. S. , comes into play. It's perfect for pasta, but will also work well on pizza or as a dipping sauce, or as an element in countless other recipes. This super-quick and easy recipe starts from fresh plum tomatoes and will make about 1 1/4 pounds of sauce (1 large jar) in about 15 minutes. No need to buy jarred pasta sauce ever againIf tomatoes are not in season, you can start from canned, whole plum tomatoes instead (drain and seed them).
