Tomato pasta sauce sounds simple enough, but there’s plenty of nuance when it comes to creating the perfect recipe. We taste-tested our way through all the top brands on the market to bring you only the best options for your kitchen, and we’re pretty smitten with what we found. One thing every jar has in common: quality ingredients. The best tomato sauces tend to be on the simple side, which means a relatively short ingredients list. That means quality is even more important, especially when it comes to tomatoes. Italian San Marzano tomatoes are one of the sweetest varieties, and make an authentic tasting sauce every time. During the summer, it’s always a treat to make fresh tomato sauce at home, but in every other season, a jarred option is the way to go.
Ways to Use Tomato Sauce
Jarred tomato sauce is a weeknight standby, especially when it comes to putting together a fast spaghetti dinner, but there are plenty of other applications you might be missing out on. Here are five things to do with tomato sauce that don’t involve pasta.
- Poach fish or simmer eggs in tomato sauce.
- Simmer white beans in tomato sauce and serve them with crusty bread.
- Make an Indian curry with spices like ginger, garlic, and curry powder.
- Steam shellfish like clams and mussels in olive oil, tomato sauce, and garlic.
- Infuse rice with tomato sauce, chopped onion, and lime for a Spanish twist.
