Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Sauce

    In a large saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes.

  2. 2

    Add Garlic and Tomatoes

    Stir in the minced garlic and cook for another minute. Add the tomatoes, salt, black pepper, and sugar (if using).

  3. 3

    Simmer

    Bring the mixture to a simmer and reduce the heat to low. Cook uncovered for about 20-30 minutes, stirring occasionally until the sauce thickens.

  4. 4

    Finish with Basil and Cheese

    Remove from heat and stir in the chopped fresh basil. Once served, sprinkle the Jasper Hill Cheese blend on top.
