jar spaghetti sauce

how long do i heat it

Answer 1

the sauce will heat up after you pour it on the meat and noodles. that is so easy that my 9 year old can do it.

Answer 2

No. Just cook the noodles as regular and drain. You could also make some ground beef in a seperate pan and drain the grease when done. Then pour the sauce onto the noodles then the meat. The meat and noodles will heat up the sauce, you could put the flame on "warm" if you want it a little hotter but all should be well. Enjoy! :) Sounds good!

Answer 3

Well, when you cook the spaghetti it gets very hot so even though the sauce is cold the spaghetti will cool it down, unless you add a bunch of sauce then you will have to heat it up in a pan, but just till it gets warm. It will burn if you leave it on the stove for so long!!!

Answer 4

yes you need to reheat the spaghetti sauce, and what to add depends on what you like.

I buy ragu 7 herbs and tomato, I add 1 can of italian seasoned dice tomatoes. If the kids aren't eating, I also add mushrooms.


Fill a medium sized pot about 3/4 of the way full with warm water.
Add a dash of salt to help the pasta soak up the water faster and a dash of olive oil to keep the pasta from sticking together.
Turn stove on high and carefully place the pot onto the burner.
It will take about 10 minutes for the water to boil completely. While you are waiting pick out your favorite kind of pasta and set aside.
Find your favorite pasta sauce and empty the jar into a smaller pot. Add various items to perfect it to your taste bud.
Let the sauce stand COVERED on stove on medium heat.
Be sure to stir the sauce periodically to heat it evenly.
By this time, your water should be boiling. Empty the entire package of pasta into the water.
Use a serving spoon to stir the pasta into the water.
It will take about another 8-9 minutes to cook the pasta.
In the mean time, place a strainer in the sink.
After about 7 minutes have passed, spoon out a piece of pasta to taste it. Depending if you like your pasta al dente (a little hard) then it is finished. If not, allow your pasta to cook for a few more minutes.
Once your pasta is ready, carefully pour it into the strainer without splashing the hot water onto your skin.
Next, run cool water over the pasta for a few seconds in order to stop it from cooking.
Shake the pasta in the strainer to make sure all the excess water is out.
Your sauce should also be hot and ready to be taken off the burner.
Pour the pasta in a larger bowl and serve the sauce over top.
Serve with bread and parmasean cheese.

Answer 5

Put the spaghetti on to cook according to the instructions I've added below. While that's cooking dump the sauce into a large glass bowl & heat it in the microwave on high for about 5 minutes. When pasta is done, drain it & add it to the sauce, or put pasta in serving bowl with heated sauce poured over it.
That's 10 minute or less meal. Enjoy!

PERFECT PASTA EVERYTIME

1 lb. uncooked spaghetti
1 gal. water, rolling boil

Place spaghetti into a deep pot of boiling, salted water. The salt & excess water help to prevent sticking, & allows the starch to cook off. After adding spaghetti, return the water to a rolling boil (do NOT cover with lid). Boil spaghetti for 2 MINUTES EXACTLY, then cover with lid, & remove pot from fire, let set for 5 MINUTES for el dente (firm) spaghetti. Drain, toss with oil or butter—olive oil is best. Or better yet, instead of coating with oil or butter mix in a LITTLE bit of the sauce, because adding oil may keep the sauce from sticking to the pasta.

The same can be done with any type of pasta. Just adjust cooking & standing time according to size & thickness of pasta being cooked.

NOTE: 1 lb. uncooked spaghetti equals 4 servings, or so they say!   It really depends on size of the appetite!

TIPS:
Never add salt to pasta water, because it will make the pasta tough.

When draining pasta in a colander heat the colander with hot water first, because a cold colander will make the pasta stick together.

Answer 6

If you eat meat, brown up some ground beef or turkey and drain off the fat. Throw in the jar sauce, and add about 1/4 to 1/2 cup good red wine to the jar to swish out all the goodness.
Reduce heat to low, cover and simmer for the time it takes to boil water and cook pasta.
Bon Gusto!

Answer 7

You don't need to heat the spaghetti sauce unless it's stored in the fridge (chill chest).

Cook your pasta according to the directions on the package/box, drain, add 2 Tbsp butter, and add your pasta sauce.

If for some reason your pasta sauce is cold warm it up in a sauce pan over medium heat just until it starts to bubble and pour over your draine and buttered pasta.

Answer 8

Not necessarily if you're storing your spaghetti sauce at room temperature. After draining the cooked noodles, just pour the cooked meat (if necessary) and spaghetti sauce over the noodles, stir, let it sit for a few minutes, serve, and enjoy.

Answer 9

No you don't need to warm first unless you are serving it over the spaghetti. If you are baking your spaghetti,just add to cooked spaghetti and then bake. I always add extra spices to jarred sauce because it is usually too bland for my taste. I add oregano,garlic powder or salt and basil and parsley. Then I top with cheese. A jar of sauce makes for a quick way to cook spaghetti.

Last week I made sauce from scratch, with all fresh ingredients, yum it was so good, never use store bought sauce.Yuk! Cooking is so simple, but you have to love doing it. Have a good day & good luck with your sauce.
