I didnt even try putting all this water in this sauce. I put 3 cups in, but I used my own tomato sauce and tomatoes that I canned too. It was very good. And added more fresh garlic.

A little too red winey flavored for me, but I will keep this recipe and alter it slightly next time.

A most definite keeper. Took my time with this one but added 1 tblsp salt, 1/2 tsp garlic salt and 2 bay leaves. Absolutely fantastic! Had even frozen half of it and seemed to taste even better afterwards. Go figure!

I made this recipe using REGULAR peeled ground tomatoes. I added MORE garlic. I also let it simmer for 7 hours. It came out PERFECT!

I had to cook for about 6 hours to get it to not be so watery, and the taste was worst then the cheapest canned store bought sauce in my opinion. Even with doctoring it up, it was bland yet spicy at the same time.

Something is wrong with this recipe. It has way to much water. It doesnot thicken in the cooking process and is a very watery spaghetti sauce.

I thought that 7 C. of water seemed a bit much. I think it must be a typo! I used only 2 c. of water, and upped the amount of red wine to 1c. also added salt. It might be that it's hard to find crushed tomatoes in PASTE and everyone is using crushed tomatoes in JUICE, the way that you find it in the stores. But I also added Parmesan cheese and meat. Came out okay. Just your basic tomato sauce. I'll keep looking- the one i'm looking for is thick and rich, not too chunky with a rich wine flavor.

Pretty good. Sauce is a little bit watery and a little bit bland, but it was a very good base for a basic spaghetti sauce. Now I can play with the seasoning until I get exactly what I want. Thanks!

Just like some of the others warned, this was waaaaaaaay too watery. If you follow the normal recipe, you might as well pull out a cup and straw 'cause you will end up with tomato water. I had to cut the recipe by one cup of water and still had to add 3 extra 6 ounce cans of paste just for it to come out somewhat normal. For added flavor, I put in 1.5 cups of parmesean cheese and 2 extra cloves of garlic. Unless you are cooking for all of Rome, cut the number of servings as well.

I have to agree with the other viewers - too watery. I added salt because taste was a little bland. Will not make again.

Yum! I still have 2 hours of cooking time left and this is by far the best recipe for spaghetti sauce ever! I used tomatoes from my garden and it is my first time cooking with fresh tomatoes instead of canned. Now I can make batches of this until my tomatoes are gone and freeze it for later!! Thanks Cathy! My house smells great!

This came out wonderfully, but I'm at a loss as to why it needs to be simmered for more than 40 minutes. I didn't have basil on hand, so I substituted with oregano and followed the directions to the letter otherwise, and I have to say, it came out divinely. Very flavorful and rich without being too heavy. It's now officially my favorite meatless sauce recipe.

I used a large can of crushed and a large can of diced tomatoes and reduced the recipe by 1 cup of water. This was a great sauce with body and full flavor. Will definitely make again.

Very tasty and very simple to prepare. I simmered it all day and it made the house smell wonderful. It made a very large pot of sauce, much more than 6 servings as the recipe states. I will definately make this again.

Didn't care for this one, not saying it's a bad recipe, just wasn't to my taste.
