The Ingredients needed to make Julie’s Homemade Italian Tomato Sauce (a-k-a Sunday Gravy):
- You need 28 oz. of can of tomato purée (crushed tomatoes would also work)
- Prepare 6 oz. of can of tomato paste
- You need 1 TB of bacon grease and/or extra virgin olive oil (I save up bacon grease drippings so I always have a reserve in a jar in the refrigerator)
- Prepare 1/2 of sweet onion, finely chopped
- Prepare 8 oz. of wine (red or white)
- You need 8 oz. of water
- It’s 4 of basil leaves, chopped
- You need 2 of bay leaves, whole
- You need 1 TB of dried oregano
- You need 2 tsp. of Sugar
- It’s to taste of Garlic salt
- You need to taste of Black pepper
- Prepare 1 of heel of Parmesan cheese, optional
Step to make Julie’s Homemade Italian Tomato Sauce (a-k-a Sunday Gravy):
- In a large pot, sauté the chopped onions in the bacon grease (preferable) or the olive oil, or a combination of both, until the onions are soft and begin to turn brown.
- Add the remaining ingredients together into the pot and simmer, covered, all day long (but for at least a couple hours). For added flavor and an amazing taste, add meatballs (see my recipe), sausage, pork ribs and/or a heel of cheese (yes, just toss the entire heel into the pot). The more, the merrier!
- When ready to serve, remove and discard the bay leaves and the heel of cheese.
- Serve over your favorite pasta.
- Tip Make a double batch and freeze the extra for next week!
