The Perfect Italian-style Tomato Sauce
Olive Oil
One small onion
2 Large cloves of garlic
800g tin of whole skinned tomatoes
Dried or fresh marjoram, thyme, basil, oregano, etc
2 Teaspoons of tomato paste1
Method
Chop the onion finely. Crush garlic with the flat of the knife blade and then chop it finely. Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a large frying pan. Add the garlic and onion and cook over medium heat, stirring frequently with a wooden spoon until garlic is soft and onion is transparent. Chop tomatoes into small pieces2 and when the onion and garlic are both transparent and soft, add the tomatoes and all the juice that was in the can with them.
Taste the sauce and if the sauce isn't 'tomatoey' enough, add some tomato paste and stir well. Add dried herbs to taste now or fresh ones just before the sauce is finished and add salt and pepper to taste. Simmer sauce until thick and rich.

There is no more Imagination anymore now Day's.........
Get Tomatoes, Basil,Garlic and Shallots, Olive Oil and Salt and Pepper for Taste. And Parmesan or Romano Cheese.
Cook all together at a Simmer for several Hour's.
If you Cook the Sauce with some of the Cheese you will get a better Texture and Flavor

1 sprig of fresh oregano (or 1 teaspoon dried oregano)
2 bay leaves (remove when done)
2 sprigs of parsley (or 1 tsp dried)

1 tablespoon honey
Instructions
Pour the olive oil into a large stockpot over medium heat.
Add diced onions, garlic and grated carrots.
Saute for 6-8 minutes or until onions are translucent and tender.

Get a whole bunch of tomatoes, par boil them, this makes it easier to remove the skin. By a whole bunch of tomatoes, I'm talking multiple paper grocery bags full. They will cook down to about a gallon of sauce.
Put the mashed skinless tomatoes in a pot and cook them down over very low heat to remove the moisture content. You have to use very low heat to keep them from burning, and it takes many HOURS.
If you don't want seeds then you need to strain them. We don't do this part, so I don't have any tips on that.
Once we get it to the consistency we want we fill zip lock bags for individual uses and freeze the sauce. Use like you would canned tomato sauce. Season it when you use it, not when you make the base sauce.

I had a deli and would make my sauce. People went nuts and wanted to me sell them the sauce. The key is time, slow simmer, let cool, refigerate and simmer again the next day. It is not hard. Crushed tomatoes, 2 cans. 1 small can of tomato paste, liberal amounts of garlic powder, dried oregano, basil and onion. It is easy but you must simmer all day, cool and reheat the next day. It takes 24 hours but the result is incredible.

dc55 got off to a good start
now take all of those ingredients and blend it in a blender for 3 mins or until smooth.
it will look a bit orangey red at first but this will change when you cook it
add extra vegetables and meat if you wish at the final stages of cooking.
I always add my veggies last so they do not over cook and taste bitter.
If the sauce is bitter I learned this trick from my roomate Franco, just add a teaspoon to tablespoon of sugar.
works everytime, this is a really good way to use up odds and ends in your veggy crisper.
