Traditional Italian Sunday Sauce Recipe

Friday, June 27, 2014
Mom always had a pot of Sunday Sauce cooking on the stove and Italian bread is a must to dip it in to test for seasonings are perfect.

Along with fried meatballs in our Italian family and of course on holiday braciole (stuffed meat rolls)!

A tradition in our house was Grandma's Homemade Egg Noodles(all by hand) every Sunday.

That's where Sunday Sauce came from and the tradition in our American Italian family.

Here is our version handed down from generation to generation.

Mom would occasionally make little ears (or we also called the hats) pasta all handmade, then, of course, using all fresh tomatoes, would be in a huge saucepot enhanced by fresh herbs and spices, simmering on the stove.

Simply the best smell in all of cooking for me is on Sunday with a pot of good old-fashioned Italian sauce simmering.

This is an easy recipe passed down for many, many years andis  over 100 years old.

If you love Italian food, this is a Rome, Italy-style sauce that Grandma and Mom made that we love.

Sunday morning was always a joy with New York's finest tomato pie, fried meatballs, and this delicious Sunday sauce over our favorite cavatelli pasta!
