SPAGHETTI MARINARA BRIEFLY

Spaghetti Marinara is a traditional Italian recipe known especially for its simple and sophisticated alla Marinara sauce. The classic version of the aromatic tomato-based sauce is prepared only with a few ingredients; usually tomatoes, garlic, onions, extra virgin olive oil, and herbs. Although Spaghetti Marinara is most commonly referred to its tomato-based sauce, an Italian Spaghetti Marinara recipe can also be accompanied with fresh seafood, such as in this particular dish.

Today, Spaghetti Marinara is widely used in Western kitchen. The Spaghetti Marinara recipe has become so popular around the world that nowadays you can find marinara mixes – a product consisting of various different types of seafood – in your local convenience store.

LEGEND BEHIND THE ORIGINS OF SPAGHETTI MARINARA SAUCE

The history behind the Spaghetti Marinara sauce recipe has been quite unclear to this day and there are numerous differing rumors related to the origins and history of the sauce. The most popular theory states that the sauce was invented in the mid-16th century by cooks returning from the Americas on Neapolitan ships after discovering the tomato. Legend has it that cooks combined the newly discovered fruit with garlic and herbs to create a sauce that was long-lasting, making it ideal for longer trips overseas. Another version argues that the sauce was prepared by the wives of the Neapolitan sailors. Nevertheless, the first Italian cookbook to introduce tomato sauce was published later on in the late 1600s. The tomato sauce in the book Lo Scalco alla Moderna can be now considered more as a modern type of tomato salsa.

THE BEST ITALIAN TOMATOES FOR A FLAWLESS SPAGHETTI MARINARA

Not all tomato sauces can be referred to as Marinara sauce. The sauce has special characteristics that differentiate it from other tomato-based sauces. For example, Spaghetti Marinara sauce is traditionally prepared with Italian San Marzano tomatoes. However, instead of focusing attention on the type of tomato, it is important to choose ripe, high-quality tomatoes. In our Spaghetti Marinara recipe, we have used Mutti Polpa to give a gorgeous taste of 100% Italian sun-ripe tomatoes to the dish. Not only are the tomatoes of the Polpa products delicious, but they brighten the magnificent Spaghetti Marinara with a deep red color.
