Heidi from Springfield cooks Spaghetti Prawns with a Creamy Tomato Sauce.
Question by Kibble is King of all Crap: Trying to make homemade tomato sauce. How do I do it, what do I use? :)?
Please!! I love Tomato sauce in Italian restaurants but not at all in jars from the store. So I’m wondering if you can help me.
How would I make good tomato sauce for penne pasta? What spices, how much, and do I use crushed tomatoes, diced tomatoes, tomato puree or tomato paste?
