Re: Store bought spaghetti sauce vs homemade
I keep them separate. But I think that's because I don't use much sauce on my noodles and that's hard to do if you mix it all together.While we are on the subject of spaghetti, do you guys mix your sauce and noodles together after they are cooked ? My mom always does it like that. She cooks it all, then mixes it together and let's it simmer on the stove for a bit. I've ate at my friends house, while growing up, and they had their noodles and sauce seperate. They always argue that there's never enough sauce if it's mixed together and I could never understand. There's always plenty of sauce when my mom makes it. Also, it's even better for left overs because the sauce soaks into the noodles.
My grandmother's cooking proves otherwise.Comment

Re: Store bought spaghetti sauce vs homemade
First....what kind of "random" makes it into homemade?
Second...I guess you missed the link I provided.....it pertains directly to the crap part!

Re: Store bought spaghetti sauce vs homemade
Home made all the way. One time I went to my friends house while his Italian grandma was over, and oh my god. I don't think I can ever eat spaghetti again. It was probably the best thing I've ever eaten. So many spices, mushrooms, peppers, onions, just, man. Nothing will come close to that, ever.HoosiersPacersPhilliesRavens

Mix before eating. For sure. It's really the only way to go. Then the leftovers are almost better than the original.Comment

Re: Store bought spaghetti sauce vs homemade
If the right person is making it, homemade is always going to better than store bought.
If I have to buy store bought though, I stick with Newman's Own and get his Sockarooni. It's amazing for being a store bought sauce. I still doctor it up a bit when I prepare it, but it's a fantastic base.Comment

Re: Store bought spaghetti sauce vs homemade
I like mines mixed, but my wife and her whole side of the family like it separated. Call me weird but I like my noodles to be drowned in sauce LOL. Where as they only put just a little sauce on their's when they eat it.
I mean I like so much sauce on my spaghetti that afterwards you got to use a couple of biscuits to get the sauce up that is left on the plate.Comment

Re: Store bought spaghetti sauce vs homemade
I feel like this with pretty much all of my mom's cooking lol.Yep. My mom's sauce is simmered for over 8 hours and nothing could ever touch it. Add to it the homemade meatballs she makes, and dayum!
I stock up on it whenever I'm home. In the meantime when I run out, I can stand to eat certain store brands. I've attempted making it myself, but it just doesn't turn out the same. I think she uses magic or something.
As for the question, as long as it tastes good to me I don't care. Some tastes better than other's, but I just need it to taste ok to me and I'll eat it. That's with all foods.Originally posted by BlueNGoldI feel weird for liking a post about exposed penises.Comment

Re: Store bought spaghetti sauce vs homemade
I mix it all together.
Oh, and I don't like sauce that has whole chunks of tomato in there. It has to be completely smooth or with chunks of beef in there, like a ragu or something.Comment

Re: Store bought spaghetti sauce vs homemade
Ours is always homemade. Our 3 year old son is very picky with eating vegetables so we blend in broccolli, cauliflower, spinach, carrot, onion, celery, etc and you wouldn't even know it was in it.Comment

Re: Store bought spaghetti sauce vs homemade
Sauce is definitely not just "sauce". That Ragu/Prego/etc. crap is AWFUL!!
I haven't used store bought pasta sauce in five plus years, ever since I realized how easy it is to make your own. Some whole tomatoes (San Marzano if available), garlic, olive oil, some basil, salt and pepper to taste, and viola, a simple marinara.
When I add meats and make a heartier sauce, I make a huge batch, bag it and freeze the extra, and my family will get three or four meals out of it.I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be. - Douglas Adams

Re: Store bought spaghetti sauce vs homemade
Doesn't matter to me but I usually have Ragu. I also like the sauce separated from the noodles. I hate when it's mixed together.
