the Marcella hazan is pretty amazing to read - it’s gorgeous in photos. I forget if it uses much butter.
before 2018, I would take the time to make tomato sauce using canned San marzano DOP tomatoes and little else. I also would cook Italian sausage and even invite my birth family to the house for spaghetti supper. It was a longer time process and so fun. Then I got busy or I decided that I enjoyed the Rao’s brand so that I quit making it and just use Rao’s marinara.
It uses a ton of butter...I actually use less and it is just as good. Most of the time is hands off.
