ok, my friend from a long time ago made this spaghetti (well her mom did) and we had it with collard greens, I LOOOVE greens. but it tasted different, like a tang like the greens...could she have used tapioca for that kick in the sauce or what? it was sooo good.

The tang probably came from a blend of vinegar(white) and a little brown sugar. The blend has to just right so as not to be too sweet or too tart. You get this balance through mixing them together in the sauce & tasting it until it's to your liking. Good luck.

It seems that tapioca is a popular ingredient in spaghetti sauce and other sauces for pasta.

Sounds to me like the collards are what gave it that kick! I never thought of collards in spaghetti sauce. I might try that myself.

Perhaps the kick was a pinch of spice such as cayanne. not sure but if I may, try a typical marinara sauce jar or can, add oregano,garlic,basil,a pinch of cinnamon and a tablespoon of sugar and let it simmer for as long as you like at low temp. The sugar offsets the acidity of the sauce, and gives it a totally unique taste.
