You can use fresh or canned plum tomatoes. A clove of garlic, a celery stalk of about six inches, small carrot, one quarter of an onion, bunch of parsley, a bunch of basil, dried red pepper flakes if you like it spicy, olive oil, salt and pepper. Add one-half teaspoon of sugar if you want.

Marinara sauce originated in Naples, which is not in Tuscany. The name comes from the Italian word for sailor, because it was made for sailors returning from the sea. It does not contain fish, even though some believe it should have anchovies in it. The ingredients are simple: olive oil, garlic, crushed Italian tomatoes, basil, and salt and pepper.
