I'll use the Bertolli or Classico as a base, whatever I could get on sale with a coupon. I take some olive oil and saute garlic, fresh oregeno from our garden, and basil. Then I add onoins, peppers, squash (sauteed zucchini does not turn to mush), finally adding some fresh mushrooms. When it's all cooked about two thirds of the way, I add the tomato sauce and cook everything together for about 15 minutes. I typically end up with a very hearty sauce. No meat because my wife is thinking about going vegan, and I don't mind meatless tomato based sauces.

A tip - for truly Italian style, never let your garlic and onions be browned. Cook them slowly under a low flame until they are translucent. WASPS brown their onions.
In our house, because of peasant sauce we probably use oil-based most often - we also make a *****ing linguini w/ clam sauce. However, my mom's tomato sauce is extremely excellent...
I find it impossible to truly enjoy a cream sauce - all I can think about is how bad for me it is...
We don't eat them at all, as far as I can remember.

The 2 best sauces are both made without tomato or cream, because they´re green pesto and walnut pestoI will never understand why some people on Apolyton find you so clever.

I guess that depends on how you make it. I use rather a lot of olive oil frying up the garlic, pancetta, and prosciutto, and that all goes in to the egg, cheese, and parsley mixture.Originally posted by GePap

Carbonara (a carbonaro is a coal mine worker) is an EGG based sauce, made with eggs, a small spoon of cream, and some herbs, which you may put or not following your own tastes. I like putting some estragon and some fresh parsley after cooking, topping the plate. Pancetta has nothing to do with raw ham-prosciutto-jambon ecru, which is only to be eaten as it is, no cooking allowed (the most you can do with it is putting raw prosciutto, cheese and fill some dead animal with that), bacon is way too salty, the real italian pancetta is sweet and very fat, so you just need a spoon of oil (sunflower because olive oil and egg may become bitter) so the pasta doesn´t stick to the panI will never understand why some people on Apolyton find you so clever.
