Marinara Sauce
Marinara is a classic Italian tomato sauce characterized by its bright, herb-forward flavor profile of garlic, basil, and oregano simmered in olive oil. Unlike meat-based ragù, this quick-cooked sauce relies on high-quality tomatoes as its foundation, making it naturally low in fat and suitable for vegan diets when prepared without cheese. Its versatile acidity and rich umami notes make it a staple for pasta dishes, pizza bases, and dipping sauces.
