                  Patler family recipe:

                  Grasp jar in left hand, cover in right.
                  Twist cover counterclockwise relative to jar and remove completely. Set aside.
                  Empty contents of jar into pan.
                  Warm contents and serve.
                  Rinse jar and place in recycling bin.
                  Discard cover.

                  Variation - grasp jar in right hand and cover in left. All else remains the same. Some people like to rinse and recycle the jar and discard the cover while warming the contents, before serving. Your choice.

                  Actually, I do have (had) a recipe for a basic tomato sauce that we used to make huge pots of with our homegrown tomatoes, onions and carrots, moderate spices, etc.. We would blend it and freeze it in meal size volumes. We then added additional tomatoes, more spices, garlic, mushrooms, etc when we used it for spaghetti, pizza, pot roasts, etc. It has been 20 years or more since I made it, and now I can't find it. Back in the days when I had bushels and bushels of tomatoes, and a herd of kids to feed!

                        Saute fresh, diced mushrooms in olive oil with spices and fresh garlic - add to your favorite sauce.

                          1 small onion, diced(or 2 or 3 shallots)
                          1 clove garlic
                          extra virgin olive oil
                          splash of white wine
                          1 28oz can San Marzano tomatoes
                          dried oregano
                          fresh or dried parsley
                          salt
                          1 squirt of sriracha

                          Saute the first and second thing in the third thing. Deglaze with the 4th thing. Add all the other things, put on spaghetti. If you have trouble finding San Marzano tomatoes, they are available at Glorioso's on Brady St. In Milwaukee. Unless its August, you should always be using some kind of canned plum tomato.

                          Also worth mentioning, a lot of cooks insist on tossing their pasta with olive oil after straining. I say that's wrong. Sauce doesn't stick to lubed up noodles (there's a joke there I'm pretty sure). Instead, just omit more olive oil or drizzle it on after the sauce.

                            Solid strategy as well to just combine sauces. A little bit of mushroom ragout, alfredo, romesco, or sofritto can bring a sauce to life. So can MSG or anchovy paste.

                              Have to be careful there. Some guys squirt more sriracha than others.
