1
Prepare the Base Sauce
In a large saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.
2
Add Tomatoes
Chop the tomatoes and add them to the saucepan. Stir well and allow to simmer for 10 minutes until the tomatoes are soft.
3
Season the Sauce
Add red pepper flakes, fresh basil, salt, and black pepper to the sauce. Stir to combine and let simmer for an additional 5 minutes.
4
Finish with Vinegar and Honey
Remove the sauce from heat and stir in vinegar and honey. Adjust seasoning to taste.
5
Cool and Store
Allow the sauce to cool completely before transferring to an airtight container. Store in the refrigerator for up to one week.
