If you try just one recipe from my food blog, it should be this spaghetti sauce. This is my mom's recipe from many years ago. The secret ingredient is Angostura bitters. It adds a depth of flavor that makes everyone love this spaghetti.
Ingredients
3 Tablespoons olive oil
1 large onion, chopped
6 cloves of garlic, chopped
1 pound fresh mushrooms, sliced
1 green pepper, seeded and chopped
1 pound ground beef
1 pound Italian sausage
1 Tablespoon Worchestshire sauce
1 Tablespoon Angostura bitters
4 bay leaves
2 can tomato paste
1 large can diced tomatoes
2 Tablespoons brown sugar
2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon celery salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
Dash of cayenne pepper
Instructions
Heat oil in large stock pot. Add onions, garlic and green peppers. Saute until softened. Add mushroom and continue to saute until cooked. Add ground beef and Italian sausage and cook, stirring frequently, until meat is no longer pink.
Add all remaining ingredients. Fill tomato paste jars with water and add to pot. Cook at a low simmer, uncovered, for 3 hours. Add more water if needed.
