Marinara Sauce

• 1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
• 5 garlic cloves, crushed
• Two 28-ounce cans Italian-style tomatoes, with juices, crushed or chopped
• 3/4 teaspoon dried oregano
• Salt, preferably kosher
• Freshly ground black pepper
• 1/2 teaspoon sugar

1. In a large saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium-low heat.
2. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, until lightly browned, squashing the cloves every minute to release more flavor into the oil, about 4 minutes.
3. The garlic cloves may be left in the sauce or removed.
4. Add the tomatoes, oregano, salt and pepper to taste, and sugar, and bring to a boil.
5. Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook for 20 minutes.
6. Adjust the seasonings as needed.
7. The sauce may be stored in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
