Use fresh ingredients to make a great pasta sauce. A heavy-bottomed pan is ideal for heating grapeseed or canola oil before adding onions. Canned or fresh tomatoes may be used, and the onions should be cooked to translucency, not browned. Add dry herbs while cooking, but if using fresh herbs, add them at the very end. Simmer, serve and plate the perfect pasta.
