  • Arribiatta Sauce

    Recipe

    3-4 Medium tomatoes
    (or a couple cans of whole tomatoes)
    2-3 cloves of garlic
    1 small onion
    1 Tbs tomato paste
    1 Tbs of oregano, parsley, basil, blk pepper.
    (I grow my own and add whatever looks good)
    1 or more tsp crushed red pepper!!!

    -Saute the diced tomatoes and diced onion in a little water for a 3-5
    minutes.
    -Add the spices, diced garlic, pepper and onion.
    -melt in the tomato paste and simmer for 15-20 minutes, it will cook down to
    a nice light sauce. Add more tomato paste if you want a thicker sauce. Add
    more tomatoes if you want a chunkier sauce.

    I don’t mean to be criptic with the measurements, my Grandmother taught me
    how to “sight cook” and I rarely use spoons or cups, if it smells good and
    the spices look evenly distributed, I’m happy.

    Muscvada: Very dark brown sugar (almost black), sticks
    together in one solid lump and has to be prised apart. The
    rawest (and tastiest) of all the sugars. Really good for dark
    cakes and especially Christmas puddings.
    Brown crystal. Very large variagated brown crystals of sugar,
    hard and crunchy usually used in coffee.
    jaggary; barely refined cane sugar. Substitute a “raw” sugar or
