Although I love having jars of homemade tomato sauce<\/a> in storage to enjoy through the year, there is nothing like the flavor of freshly harvested, sun-ripened tomatoes.<\/p>\n

This summer tomato sauce recipe takes advantage of tomatoes harvested at their peak flavor. Because this tomato sauce is cooked quickly, it retains that fresh-tomato taste and has a bright, fruity, and slightly tart flavor.<\/p>\n

This is a classic marinara that can be used in many ways, including tossed with spaghetti, homemade egg noodles<\/a>, ricotta gnocchi<\/a>, in zucchini lasagna<\/a>, or as a dipping sauce for zucchini garlic bites<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Most types of tomatoes work well in this tomato sauce recipe, including cherry, grape, paste, or slicing tomatoes. A mix of different types will give you a well-rounded flavored sauce.<\/p>\n
