I spent 6 months in Italy. Mario's recipes are the real deal. This spaghetti sauce is great!

This is the best tomato sauce ever!!! It is my basic sauce. It allows the toamtoes to make the statement, not anything else. Some recipes allow the cheese to stand. Not for me, thats why its called "TOMATO SAUCE". For me I take it everywhere with no limits. I will add meatballs to the sauce, sausage, braciole I use it for lasagna too. You name it and it goes well. One rater said she tasted too much thyme. She misread the recipe. You can use fresh or dried, however it calls for different amounts. If you follow the recipe you will like!!! mangi e goda!!!

I love this sauce, it is everything I have ever wanted out of a tomato sauce. I whipped this up to serve with some homemade tortellini (I can feel some of you wincing already and not only was it a hit, but my guests took it upon themselves to demolish the remaining sauce off of my stove with only the bread I had made.

I made this for a dinner party and I had people raving about how they've never had sauce like this. I served it on the side, versus over pasta, and it was a HUGE hit! Personally, I let it reduce some so it was thicker.

This was such a simple and surprisingly delicious recipe. I will make this from now on. I also did not need to add salt. Great flavor!

You don't have to cook all day to have a nice sauce. I mix it with some browned ground lamb and penne or farfala pasta.

Not only does this sauce take no time to prepare but the flavor is bright, light and pure tasting unlike a tomato sauce that is slow cooked for hours.

This had horrible flavor. All I could taste was the thyme. I used dried thyme leaves and halved the quantity because I thought that was too much and it was still over powering. Blech!
