Marinara Sauce (The Best)

this is the sauce I use in all my recipes, it is the backbone of flavor, and quite honestly the best marinara sauce I have ever had. It makes the best Carbonara I have ever had, delicious with a Pollo parmigiana, anything, you name it, delicious! I don't have the time right now to give you the scaled version, so here is the recipe, I use in my restaurant. You scale it!
