Default Homemade spaghetti sauce tips/tricks/ingredients/etc.

So, I'm making homemade spaghetti sauce tonight and wondering what others add to their sauce to make it awesome?

I made a basic recipe tonight: Ground chuck, tomato sauce, tomato paste, sauteed onions/bell peppers/garlic, kosher sea salt/pepper, Italian seasoning blend, 1 bay leaf, and a lot of hopeful anticipation.

I like for my sauce to simmer a good 3 hours, at least, before I eat it.

What about you guys?

5 or so drops of hot sauce, mushrooms and basil added to what your recipe generally calls for I don't like a lot of heat but a couple of drops of hot sauce gives an almost unrecognizable kick.

Add a little soy sauce to it it adds a depth of flavor.

Sounds great as it is. I do 2 sauces one quick: Start with chopped fresh garlic sauteed in olive oil for a few minutes (do not brown just soften) fresh basil, plum tomato's. That's it. Cook less than 15 mins. Longer releases too much acid.

Longer sauce: Start by sauteeing garlic in olive oil, add beef and pork cuts (depends on what inspires me at market) plum tomato's, basil and a little oregano (fresh if I can get it or dried if I can not) simmer for several hours. This is closer to what my Italian relatives brought from Italy.

Virgo Moon Survey:

Does the full moon impact your appetite?

More energy less appetite. Interesting.

What is your beverage of choice to have with a meal?

My ginger ale, or green tea if it is Asian food.



Name your Top 3 Comfort Foods:

Toasted plain or everything bagel, with butter.

Arroz con Pollo, with black beans, guac, sour cream, salsa and tabasco

Cappellini or thin Spaghetti with light plum tomato sauce and lots of Locatelli Romano cheese


If you could have anyone cook for you who would it be?

dixie - I hear she can throw down some Stroganoff and Chicken and Dumplings.

If you could have a meal anywhere in the world, where would you go? Tell us about it.

I would go to an Island beach or one of the less populated Keys and grill on the beach. All day and night.

Do you have a Food TV show that you like? If so what do you like about it?


I like Top Chef, and anything with Nigella Lawso, Giada De Laurentis or Sunny Anderson. I do not watch much TV these days but I like what I have seen.

Top Chef inspires my imagination and it is cool to see what Chefs come up with.

The others...well lovely ladies who can cook..what can I say.


What do you want to learn how to cook/make?

I am going to work on learning more about confections.


Name your Top 3 Desserts:

Chocolate & Coffee Ice Cream
Lemon Italian Ice
Creme Brulee with fresh raspberries


Create a new ice cream flavor. Give it a name:


Espresso and Cream with chocolate chips - Coffee Seduction


( This was kinda like talking to myself! )
