BASIC Bro-MATO SAUCE

Hey dude, its time for you to learn something that you can use for a lot of different occasions.

The world cup is going on and Italy has basically blown it.
They won in 2006 and lost this year in the QUALIFYING ROUND...


As an American you probably don't understand how embarrassing this is for a country like Italy.
I have been to Italy and they pride themselves on being what they think is the coolest person in the room... everyone is always dressed like this



So to put this in perspective imagine bagging a hot piece of trim like this at the end of the night

only to wake up to this

so to honor this obnoxious flop I give you...

BASIC Bro-MATO SAUCE

INGREDIENTS!

2 - cans of Crushed Tomatoes
1 - small can of tomato paste
1 - bulb of garlic
1 large or 2 small - onions
red wine
extra virgin olive oil
salt & pepper

Time to get down to biznass
1. Listen to Gordy and chop those onions


2. chop the garlic (think of it as a small onion)

3. coat a bottom of a large pot with olive oil (3-5 glugs) and put that on medium heat

4. chuck in the onions, stirring every minute or so until they go transparent

5. add the tomato paste, stirring a bit more frequently

6. when the tomato paste begins to caramelize (turn a little brown) throw in the garlic, once you can smell the garlic and the tomato paste really begins to caramelize.... like 30-45 seconds... hit the mixture with a few solid glugs of wine... this is crucial because it deglazes the pan and picks up all the nice little bits of carmelization on the bottom of the pan... let the mixture cook for another few minutes until the wine has pretty much evaporated, then hit it with some more wine and deglaze again

7. once you have deglazed the mixture twice you can add in your two whole cans of crushed tomatoes.... let the mixture cook together for 10-15 minutes and then serve!

This sauce is great on Pizza, pieces of fried chicken (with mozzarella cheese... makes a wicked chicken parm), with garlic bread, or pretty much anything requiring a marinara sauce....

This recipe makes a big pot of sauce and it freezes perfectly so you can always have some on hand when you need it by stashing some away in the freezer.

oh boy!
