    Thank you! This is how I make my sauce! Except, of course for your, magic ingredient! I do use my own canned tomatoes, sauce, and paste; but I will certainly add the wine next time!

    Jo Mama’s World Famous Spaghetti, My kids will give up a steak dinner for this spaghetti It is a recipe I have been perfecting for years and it is so good (if I may humbly say) that my kids are disappointed when they eat spaghetti anywhere else but home! In fact they tell me I should open a restaurant and serve only this spaghetti and garlic bread In response to requests, I have posted the recipe for Recipe #28559 that uses approximately 1/2 of the sauce from this recipe Have spaghetti one night and lasagna later! Thanks to all of you who have tried my recipe and have written a review I read and appreciate every one of them! Chef Note: After I posted this recipe I remembered a funny incident–my dear husband usually has a nice bottle of wine handy so when I make a batch of spaghetti I just help myself to a splash of it On one occasion, there wasn’t a bottle opened, but there was a bottle sitting on the counter so I got out the corkscrew and helped myself For some reason, the spaghetti that night was the best ever My husband asked what wine I put in it and I showed him the bottle He nearly fell off the chair I had opened a rather expensive bottle he had bought to give his boss Goes to show you–don’t use a wine for cooking you wouldn’t drink You get the best results from a good wine!, Thank you! This is how I make my sauce! Except, of course for your, magic ingredient! I do use my own canned tomatoes, sauce, and paste; but I will certainly add the wine next time!, The best sauce I have ever had!! The only way I make spaghetti sauce now!!! I do however omit all that water!!!
