The ingredients needed to make The Tomato Sauce:

Thankfully, we don't have to rely on fresh tomatoes for a good sauce—canned is actually preferred. Andie also notes the tomato sauce is sweeter than most, and it is. The sweetness comes from a whole can of tomato paste, plus a dose of extra sugar. Personally I loved the sweetness of the sauce, it brings out the flavor of the tomatoes.
Instructions to make The Tomato Sauce:
- Peel off the skin of tomato and roughly chop
- Peel yellow onion and cut in half lengthwise
