How do you guys make your tomato sauce? I use whole canned tomatoes from a restaurant supply store. Every time I make the sauce, my gf complains it's too sour.

I assume it's the acidity in the tomatoes. I've tried simmering the sauce longer (2 hours or so should be plenty I've read), adding a few TBSP of sugar, adding more fat (butter), but can't seem to please her pallet. At this point I just assume it's because she's Filipino and is used to the "sweet" tomato sauce they make with their spaghetti over there. pic related

It’s the first time that I see Americans calling that dish “American” instead of Italian (which it isn’t at all), so I respect op for that.

>>19897162
Yes it’s true because not doing it is really stupid as fuck for several reasons.

The number 1 reason for mixing pasta and sauce in the same pan is to make the sauce stick to the pasta by adding a ladle of starchy pasta cooking water that acts as a glue when most of the water has evaporated.

You do this with every single kind of pasta, not just spaghetti.

I brown some sausage (no casings) and cook down a diced onion/garlic a little bit then toss it in the crock pot for 6 hours with whatever spices I'm using and some cheap canned crushed tomatoes. I peel a big carrot and toss it in then remove it at the end. sometimes I'll shred the carrot and just let it dissolve into the sauce.

This is true. Spaghetti is one of the worst shapes for a meat sauce. You want a pasta with ridges, some other kind of trapping mechanism, or at least a wide surface area for the meat bits to cling to.

This is really a partial answer. While true that in a chemistry setting sugar doesn't change the ph of an acid. Cooking is far more complex in that adding sugar can change the ph because it effects other things in the sauce like tomatoes.
