"This is loosely based on Lydia Bastianich's recipe and is spectacular. This is an authentic "gravy" for pasta. Rich and robust. We add hot pepper flakes to taste."

  1. I am Italian and this is about as authentic as it gets!! I do cut up fresh mushrooms, celery and green pepper and saute it all with the onions and garlic. Fabulous!! Extra garlic always works too! I add a little parmesan (dry) to the sauce. YUM!!!!
