I always add shredded carrots to any pasta sauce as part of the base. I add my diced onions and shredded carrots to my olive oil first every time. It adds sweetness and it's a big go-to for me. You already mentioned mushrooms, but recently I've tried adding finely chopped mushrooms as part of the base product after I add garlic. I just let a bit of butter melt into it and I find the release of the mushroom's water and the butter adds a lot of rich flavour. Obviously this really starts to get away from anything traditionally Italian, but I love it.

Great stuff ladies, I opened my fridge and only found some cheap proscutto, and bit of really cheap pre-grated parmesan cheese, Vietnamese hot peppers, and a bottle of really good Riesling. I chopped up some garlic and onions, heated the pan with a dab of olive oil. Threw in the onion, garlic, pepper, and the proscutto, a drop of the wine. It was faboluous and only took about eight minutes to cook. Thanks agian ladies.

I would add sun dried tomatoes, balsamic vinegar, basil, and my favorite cooking essential from Italy - toscanian dried mix (olives, chillies, tomatoes, salt, herbs, garlic and lots of other dried stuff) which you can heat up on a drizzle of olive oil and it makes a great pasta itself! Everytime someone of my friends or family is in Italy I beg them to buy me those; )

So many resources alert us to non-product ingredients and 'bugs' in the packages of dried mushrooms available in the marketplace. Is there a single 'reliable' resource? On another thread, I said I would never marry again. wife deceased. but if Emma were available, I would hope for a 'capture'. lol. a true goddess, not to discredit her sisters. lol. :-)

i always keep paprika in, both the sweet and hot/smoky kinds. I like to put it in a tomato risotto, or add to bolognese with a pinch of ginger for a kick, and you can make an amazing stew with chicken, tomatoes, white wine, fresh peppers, pearl barley and tons of hot/smoky paprika.

If you are using dried herbs, you should add them as soon as possible. Contrary to fresh herbs, dried herbs need a while before they release all their flavour. So preferably not at the end, but right after your tinned tomatoes go in.

I never use stock in tomato sauces, it becomes way too earthy for me. But I usually add some mustard, ketchup, pinch of sugar, lemon zest and paprika powder just to give it a hum of something smokey: ) Very good tips otherwise!

I didn't intend what I wrote earlier to seem so 'demanding' (can t find the right word: -) Basil is essential for my pasta cupboard. Also, I always drizzle in a touch more olive oil just before serving. Love your videos: -)

Hi; You've used blitz twice in this video - and I think it might mean 2 somewhat different things, in this case. For those of us across the pond, would you kindly explain what the heck, blitz them up means?
