well, if it’s a different type of canned tomato you’re looking for, i’m sure you could used canned diced, canned crushed or even tomato puree. if you’re looking for something outside of canned entirely, i guess you could just use real tomatoes!

hehe… thanks happytummy! ;D

while I still have you here, heh, what would be a suitable replacement for canned tomatoes? (not the paste)

Hi Saki! Hope you get to try the recipe–it’s really easy. For the white wine, you could really just substitute water. The purpose of that liquid is just to thin out the sauce a bit. I used white wine because I had an open bottle on hand, but it’s not like I tasted it very strongly in the pasta sauce in the end, once everything was cooked.

Awesome! I can’t wait to make this. Umm… Question: what’s a suitable replacement for white wine?

Ooo… I am definitely drooling now!

I loved tomatoes as a child, too… especially cherry ones from the garden :) I guess we were both weird kids, huh?!

Can’t wait to try your recipe – I’m always looking for good marinara sauces.

Your sauce looks nice and thick. Mine always comes out too thin. Makes me hungry just to look at it.

I used to love picking tomatoes from my grandparent’s garden. I can still remember the sweet, warm, smell. I prefer fresh from canned any day! Your pictures are lovely.
