[quote=Anonymous]I always knew I was supposed to cook the sauce with carrots (actually a full mirepoix with onion and celery), but I never knew it was because of the sugar! I thought it was just to enhance the flavor. I also use olive oil and tomato paste in the base. Honestly, the tomatoes themselves are kind of superfluous at that point, especially since most grocery store tomatoes have no flavor whatsoever. And then don't be afraid to season the sauce. "Some" basil and "a little" salt and pepper just sounds so bland! I use massive amounts of basil, oregano, thyme, marjoram, and a handful of other herbs in my sauce. A little sauce then goes a long way, so that it's more like a light dressing for the noodles rather than a soup that the spaghetti swims in.[/quote]
