Can pasta sauce still taste good without oregano?!
I'm in the islands right now and can't seem to find oregano anywhere!. I want to make some pasta sauce, and I know oregano is one of the main ingredients!. It is worth making the sauce!?Www@FoodAQ@Com
Answers:
I never use oregano!. Our family's basic and quick tomato sauce is:
2 tbs olive oil
3 large cloves garlic, cut in half
1/4 cup tomato paste
3 cans (28 oz!. each) Italian peeled tomatoes, pureed
1 1/2 - 2 cups water
6 leaves basil, torn into small pieces (always tear fresh basil by hand) OR 1 tsp dried, rubbed between your palms to release flavor just before adding to sauce
Saute the garlic cloves in olive oil til lightly browned, then discard!. The oil will retain the garlic flavor!. Add the tomato paste and blend with the oil!. Add the peeled tomatoes and water, blend all well!. Salt and pepper to taste!. We usually toss in a pinch of crushed red pepper as well, just for the kick! Add basil!. Simmer for at LEAST a half hour to an hour!.

Yes, you can make a decent pasta sauce without it!. If you have all of the other ingredients, why not!? Don''t forget the basil, if there is any available!. Www@FoodAQ@Com
Use rosemary, thyme, and basil, parsley, a tiny, miniscule pinch of cinnamon, a bit of brown sugar, and any of these combined works well!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
you could also subsitute thyme, rosemary, and basil!.!.!. If you can find Italian seasoning, that works just as well, but not as good to me!. Www@FoodAQ@Com
