I'm gonna go ahead and keep this one simple. This sauce is delicious. It's garlicky. You should make it. It's a teensy bit fussy, but not too bad. I learned the original recipe while I was briefly working as a kitchen assistant in a fancy, upscale kitchen gadget store, that held cooking classes.
This recipe is adaptable to whatever season you find yourself in. In summer, you can skip the canned, tetrapak, or glass packed* tomatoes all together and just use fresh Roma tomatoes. In winter, just go with canned, tetrapak, or glass packed*. I used a combination of both, because fresh tomatoes are, for some reason, still a little on the pricey side here. Once again, I didn't really measure, just wing it, you'll survive. I promise it will still taste good. :)
