    This is by far and away the best homemade marinara ever! I always make several batches and it freezes well! I love it!

    This is a great marinara sauce. I like to add bell pepper and fennel seeds to it. I keep it in the fridge for a quick meal like speghetti.

    I have been fiddling around with making my own marina in large batches and freezing it for later use. I have tried many other more complicated recipes with more complicated ingredients and found them to be good, but not very versatile. After discovering this simple marinara, I won't make anything else. The fabulous thing about is that I can make a huge pot of this basic sauce, freeze it and then add fresh ingredients to it to suit whatever dish I'm making that night. I can add red pepper flakes to spice it up, I can add fresh basil for a clean fresh taste, I can add red wine for a richer flavor. Thanks Giada! PS - I experimented with using fresh tomatoes instead of the canned. It turned out amazing.

    I have been wanting to make my own marinara to have on hand for some time now and decided that today was the day. I just finished my first ever batch of homemade marinara sauce thanks to Giada's recipe! It's fabulous! It has a fresh and clean taste. I hate that store bought pasta sauce has so many extra unnecessary ingredients. I have found a sauce I plan on making for many years to come!

    This is the first time I have ever made homemade marinara sauce. I gave some to my daughter and she said, " Mom this is not good. It's delicious!" I was very pleased to see that my children liked the sauce, which is very important to me. Personally, I thought it needed to be blended and it had more of a veracruz sauce taste without the japs, olives and cilantro. I will defeinately make this sauce again but add a bit more flavoring to it.

    I?m with some of the others that this is a little bland. The only substitution I made at first was to use fresh tomatoes. The end product really had a lack luster flavor so I added some fresh herbs and a touch more salt. Not sure if the varied result that I got was because of the fresh tomatoes, but overall a good sauce that I will make again.

    you've got to put it in a food processor after it is done to get the right consistency.. that's the difference

    I've always wanted to learn how to make my own sauce and tried this one since it was all natural ingredients. Love it! My kids and I taste it till we top the pasta with it. Recipe makes plenty and stores well. Great recipe!
