ENHANCE THAT JAR OF SPAGHETTI SAUCE
I never have enough sauce from just a jar alone. I also like the taste of fresh ingredients. I like to combine both in this recipe! The red wine makes all the difference. Serve on favorite noodles with mozzarella cheese and mushrooms on top.

Steps:
- Melt butter with olive oil in a small skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir mushrooms in butter mixture until softened, 2 to 3 minutes. Add 1/4 cup red wine; bring to a simmer, reduce heat to medium-low, and cook until the mushrooms are very dark and shrunken in size, about 20 minutes.
- Heat a large pot over medium heat. Cook and stir ground beef, yellow onion, diced tomatoes, red bell pepper, green bell pepper, and garlic together until the beef is completely browned, about 10 minutes; season with oregano, basil, and rosemary. Stir 3/4 cup red wine and tomato paste into the beef mixture. Pour spaghetti sauce into the pot; stir. Return mixture to a simmer and continue cooking until the flavors blend, 10 to 30 minutes.

BETTER THAN A JAR SPAGHETTI SAUCE
I've made this spaghetti sauce several times when we've had guests over for dinner parties. Always great the first, second and third time around.

- Rao’s Marinara. This is a little complicated, so bear with me. In December, I tweeted out a photo of Victoria marinara sauce and declared it the best on the market.
- Mezzetta Marinara. Mezzetta, a California-based company that coined the slogan “Don’t Forgetta Mezzetta,” makes an excellent sauce, in addition to jarred olives and preserved veggies.
- The Silver Palate San Marzano Marinara. Silver Palate is a name you may know from Sheila Lukins and Julee Rosso’s 1982 cookbook or their Upper West Side shop that preceded it.
- Victoria Marinara. Victoria ticks off the biggest and most important checkbox when judging marinara: Does it taste more or less how a simple homemade sauce tastes?
- Fody Low FODMAP Marinara. Here’s the big surprise of the top tier. Fody specializes in low FODMAP (which stands for “fermentable oligo-, di-, monosaccharides and polyols” — there will be a quiz later) food items.
- DeLallo Pomodoro Fresco. DeLallo makes a very nice sauce — more unctuous than average and with a pronounced olive flavor that’s quite noticeable. That’s balanced out by the slightly sweet tomato flavor.
- Michael’s of Brooklyn. If we were judging based on appearance alone, this entry would win. It has a distinctive, wide-shouldered jar and simple gold cap.
- Organico Bello Marinara. One of the better entries that’s basil-forward. The basil comes across as sweet and floral, not bitter as can sometimes happen, and complements the light, bright tomato.
- Bianco DiNapoli Organic Sauce. Genuine Northern California tomatoes go into this sauce created by Chris Bianco and Rob DiNapoli. Given Bianco’s pedigree (and the attractive label art), I expected greatness.
- Whole Foods Premium Marinara. As with cooking a good piece of Wagyu beef, sometimes all you need to do is not mess it up. Whole Foods did a good job here — they didn’t mess it up.

- Extra virgin olive oil. Adding a good amount of a flavorful olive oil will go a long way in infusing flavor into your sauce. You can add this to the pot to begin with, or drizzle it on just before serving as a finishing oil.
- Fresh garlic. Yes, I know your canned pasta sauce lists garlic in the ingredients. But if you add fresh garlic as well, the flavor will be more distinct and powerful, and the sauce will taste more homemade.
- Meat. I love adding some protein to canned spaghetti sauce. It adds an extra flavor and textural element. Plus it will help keep your belly full longer!
- Hot pepper flakes. Another way to inject some extra flavor is with hot pepper flakes. Yes, you could just buy hot Italian sausage for that kick of heat, but for those of us that are kind of wimpy about spicy food, it’s nice to be able to control the amount.
- Red wine. Wine really adds another layer to your sauce flavors. Think of this like vanilla extract. You don’t have enough time to cook out the alcohol, so you want to use just enough to flavor the sauce but not lend too much of an alcohol flavor.
- Fresh or dried herbs. Again, the ingredients in your sauce may list herbs, but adding fresh or even dried herbs helps to enhance those flavors. If you use dried herbs, add them at any time during the cooking.
- Cheese. Oh, cheese. It can cover a multitude of sins—or boring spaghetti sauces. If you don’t have Parmesan in your fridge, you can definitely use cheddar, Colby, mozzarella, or whatever you fancy!
- Cream and/or butter. I first learned about adding cream to a tomato sauce from a friend. He had cooked a red sauce, and at the end, after he had plated the pasta and sauce, he poured heavy cream on top.
