CLASSIC MARINARA SAUCE
Homemade marinara is almost as fast and tastes immeasurably better than even the best supermarket sauce - and it's made with basic pantry ingredients. All the tricks to a bright red, lively-tasting sauce, made just as it is in the south of Italy (no butter, no onions) are in this recipe. Use a skillet instead of the usual saucepan: the water evaporates quickly, so the tomatoes are just cooked through as the sauce becomes thick. (Our colleagues over at Wirecutter have spent a lot of time testing skillets to find the best on the market. If you're looking to purchase one, check out their skillet guide.)

Steps:
- Pour tomatoes into a large bowl and crush with your hands. Pour 1 cup water into can and slosh it around to get tomato juices. Reserve.
- In a large skillet (do not use a deep pot) over medium heat, heat the oil. When it is hot, add garlic.
- As soon as garlic is sizzling (do not let it brown), add the tomatoes, then the reserved tomato water. Add whole chile or red pepper flakes, oregano (if using) and salt. Stir.
- Place basil sprig, including stem, on the surface (like a flower). Let it wilt, then submerge in sauce. Simmer sauce until thickened and oil on surface is a deep orange, about 15 minutes. (If using oregano, taste sauce after 10 minutes of simmering, adding more salt and oregano as needed.) Discard basil and chile (if using).

THE BEST MARINARA SAUCE
I developed this recipe with a friend to make the most of a bumper crop of tomatoes. Now we like to make huge batches-we're talking 220-pounds-of- tomatoes huge-and then give jars along with a pound of pasta as gifts around the holidays. Knowing this sauce is made from the heart with the best possible ingredients makes me feel good about giving it to my family and friends. -Shannon Norris, Cudahy, Wisconsin

SAN MARZANO PERFECT MARINARA SAUCE RECIPE
Instructions are for a Big Batch of Marinara Sauce utilizing a huge can of Nina San Marzano Tomatoes 106 ounces which you can purchase for less than four dollars at Costco. The price of yearly membership is worth it just to be able to buy these cans of tomatoes. When you open up this can look at how beautifully bright red the tomatoes are. Also, note that there is a nice beautiful tomato sauce not a watered down version like you find in most canned tomatoes. After I tried the San Marzano tomatoes I couldn't go back to regular canned tomatoes. This is a very flavorful simple marinara sauce. I usually make up a batch when I'm making lasagna and then the extra sauce goes into the freezer to use later. Don't rate this recipe negatively if you choose to make it with other types of tomatoes rather than San Marzano. I have received so many complements on my sauce. Try this you won't be sorry.

Steps:
- Open the can of Nina San Marzano tomatoes, being very careful since the large size of the can makes it awkward. The lid is very sharp be careful not to cut yourself. Pour the tomatoes into a large pot. Mash them a few times with your potato masher and set aside.Slice your garlic with a garlic slicer or use a sharp paring knife to cut very thin slices.
- Now you'll need a fairly large saute pan. Heat about ¼ cup of the olive oil in the pan on medium and then add the sliced garlic. Saute only until golden brown. (Be careful not to burn it, there is nothing worse than burnt garlic. Watch your heat if it's too hot it can burn the garlic almost instantly. If you do burn the garlic you might as well start all over again.) Then add the crushed garlic, splash with some white wine if desired and saute for just a little longer.
- Remove the saute pan from the heat and pour the garlic mixture into the large pot with the tomatoes. Pour in the remaining olive oil, salt and simmer uncovered for approximately 60 to 90 minutes. When the sauce has reduced to the thickness you like, remove from heat and add the freshly cut basil and stir.
- There is a common misconception that you should cook the family recipe for pasta sauce "all day". Not this marinara sauce recipe!
