Marinara Sauce (The Best)

• 3/4 cup olive oil
• 3 cups minced garlic
• 1 cup diced red onion
• 384 ounces crushed red pear tomatoes (3 128 oz. cans)
• 384 ounces tomato sauce
• 256 ounces diced tomatoes
• water
• 1 2/3 cups sugar
• 1/2 cup salt
• 1/2 cup pepper
• 1/4 cup dried oregano
• 1/4 cup dried basil

1. Add oil to a saute pan, and saute the onion and garlic.
2. In a big enough pot add your 3 tomato sauces, onion and garlic, and enough water to make it a nice consistency.
3. Heat until hot enough to add the spices, sugar, salt, and pepper.
4. Now depending upon what you want to do, heat the sauce to 160 to 190 degrees, try to do this as long as possible for extra flavor--can take from 45 minutes to 2 hours.
5. You now have a delicious marinara sauce that can be used in some of my other recipes, or for anything you want!
