Brown the meat with the onions and then proceed with the recipe as written. The recipe will support about 1-1 \u00bd pounds of ground meat.\u00a0Or try my <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thecountrycook.net\/meatball-parmesan-skillet\/\">Meatball Parmesan Skillet<\/a> using this marinara sauce recipe for a fun, meaty recipe!<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1628531438665\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">Can I use fresh herbs instead of dried?<\/strong> <\/p>\n<p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Fresh herbs are great to add to a Marinara Sauce. Dried herbs are more potent so you\u2019ll use about 2-3 times the amount of fresh herbs. You may also need to simmer longer for the flavors to permeate the sauce.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1628531488819\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">How long do I need to simmer this for best flavor?<\/strong> <\/p>\n<p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Simmer the sauce for at least 30 minutes. But it can be simmered for up to an hour or two. Keep the heat low and stir occasionally to make sure the sauce isn\u2019t sticking\/burning on the bottom of the pan. Add \u00bd cup of red wine just after saut\u00e9ing the garlic\/herbs. Red wine provides depth and richness to the sauce.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1628531564801\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">Can I double this recipe?<\/strong> <\/p>\n<p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Absolutely! If you want to double this to serve more people or to save for later, you can absolutely do that.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1744407384499\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">How can I cut down on the acidity of the tomatoes without using sugar in this sauce?<\/strong> <\/p>\n<p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">I did learn a tip about acidity\u00a0that I wanted to share with you. We\u2019re generally taught to add sugar to tomato sauces (like I do here) or sometimes folks add carrots because of their natural sweetness, but if you don\u2019t want to add sugar but still want to cut some of the acid in the sauce, try adding a bit of baking soda. It can really help neutralize the acidity and make it a little less tart without needing to add sugar. So you could add about a teaspoon here instead of sugar if you want an alternative.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1628531590614\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">How do I store leftovers?<\/strong> <\/p>\n<p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Cool the marinara sauce to room temperature. Store in an airtight container or a ziptop bag. Sauce will keep in the refrigerator for 4-5 days or freeze in a freezer bag for up to 3 months.\u00a0Defrost in refrigerator before reheating on stovetop.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1744407795337\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">How else can I use this sauce?<\/strong> <\/p>\n<p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Obviously this Marinara Sauce is great with pasta but it would also be great to make some <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thecountrycook.net\/homemade-meatballs\/\">Homemade Meatballs<\/a> and then add them to the sauce for spaghetti and meatballs or meatball sandwiches!<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"1200\" alt=\"A large stockpot full of Homemade Marinara sauce. \" class=\"wp-image-186245 perfmatters-lazy\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/www.thecountrycook.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/main-image-Homemade-Marinara-Sauce.jpeg\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thecountrycook.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/main-image-Homemade-Marinara-Sauce.jpeg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thecountrycook.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/main-image-Homemade-Marinara-Sauce.jpeg 800w, https:\/\/www.thecountrycook.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/main-image-Homemade-Marinara-Sauce-474x711.jpeg 474w, https:\/\/www.thecountrycook.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/main-image-Homemade-Marinara-Sauce-683x1025.jpeg 683w, https:\/\/www.thecountrycook.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/main-image-Homemade-Marinara-Sauce-768x1152.jpeg 768w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\"\/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"1200\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thecountrycook.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/main-image-Homemade-Marinara-Sauce.jpeg\" alt=\"A large stockpot full of Homemade Marinara sauce. \" class=\"wp-image-186245\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thecountrycook.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/main-image-Homemade-Marinara-Sauce.jpeg 800w, https:\/\/www.thecountrycook.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/main-image-Homemade-Marinara-Sauce-474x711.jpeg 474w, https:\/\/www.thecountrycook.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/main-image-Homemade-Marinara-Sauce-683x1025.jpeg 683w, https:\/\/www.thecountrycook.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/main-image-Homemade-Marinara-Sauce-768x1152.jpeg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/www.thecountrycook.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/main-image-Homemade-Marinara-Sauce.jpeg\"\/><\/figure>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-ingredients-needed-see-recipe-card-below-for-the-full-recipe\">INGREDIENTS NEEDED: (SEE RECIPE CARD BELOW FOR THE FULL RECIPE)<\/h3>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>olive oil<\/strong> \u2013 you could also use avocado oil as well.<\/li>\n<li><strong>onion<\/strong>\u2013 if you don\u2019t care for onions in your marinara sauce, you can omit them.<\/li>\n<li><strong>garlic<\/strong> \u2013 use fresh garlic here if at all possible.
