    also please make pasta sauce from scratch.

    As someone who frequently makes sauce from scratch, a hunk of ground beef or Italian sausage and a jar of Rao’s will absolutely get the job done on a busy weeknight when I can’t be bothered with chopping up a bunch of veggies. Plain passata and your own stuff is not “a million times better”.

      what pasta sauce are you making? that’s overkill man.

      all you need is

      • passata
      • olive oil
      • garlic
      • onions
      • oregeno

      buy pre cut frozen onions and pre minced garlic. this is how we italian-Canadians make pasta sauce from home overseas

      It’s literally only better if you have skill and, imo, time. You can’t make a good tomato sauce in like 10min from scratch, fight me

        Right, it takes most home cooks ten minutes just to mince the garlic and dice an onion, carrot, and celery for mirepoix
