I think this is da link that you were referrin' to: youtube.com/watch?v=NV6w2gfLDZ8 (I considered writing the whole comment in the patois of la cosa nostra, but thought that it may be taken the wrong way. And that there may be a contract taken out on me as a result.) | |

Apr 15, 2015 at 22:11 | comment | added | Mari-Lou A | @JanusBahsJacquet This is the classic traditional sauce. You can make tomato sauce without the celery and carrot, but onions are an essential ingredient. If the tomatoes (in season) are particularly ripe and juicy, you can make a quick delicious sauce w/o any onion, but I would always add some garlic. The microwave recipe (which I admit I had not seen) is the cheater's/shortcut version, even Italian housewives need to save time in the kitchen! However, ragù must never be cooked in the microwave but on the stove, for at least two hours. | |
