Re: Homemade sauce?
I use MIL recipe that she learned growing up in an Italian neighborhood.
It's 2 large cans crushed tomatoes 2 small cans tomato sauce 2 small cans tomato paste a dash of sugar sprinkle oregano and basil over the top to cover and then stir in
brown garlic and sausage before hand and then add above ingredients.
I do mine in the slow cooker for 2 hours or so

Re: Homemade sauce?
2 cans Tuttoroso crushed tomatoes 1 can tomato paste 1 can water (use the tomato paste can) 1 tbsp salt sugar Garlic Onions fresh parsley fresh basil red pepper
Saute garlic & onions in olive oil. Add all ingredients except paste (see below)
I usually make meatballs w/my sauce too.
1 lb ground beef parmesan cheese bread crumbs (put two or three slices of italian bread in blender or food processor) egg parsley garlic salt
Mix all together and fry in olive oil and 3-4 garlic slices.
Once meatballs are done, remove meatballs from pan, leave garlic in pan. Add tomato paste, salt and water and mix. Add to sauce. Add meatballs to sauce too.
Stir occassionally and cook for 2 hours.
