Italian Tomato Sauce

Italian tomato sauce, known as “sugo” in Italian, is a vital element in Italian cuisine. Made from tomatoes, olive oil, aromatics like onions and garlic, and seasoned with herbs like basil and oregano, it serves as a base for pasta, pizza, and more. The process involves sautéing aromatics, adding tomatoes, seasoning, and simmering to develop rich flavors. Regional variations exist, making it a versatile and fundamental component of Italian dishes.
