Ha-mazing! Puts to rest the odd-ball old myth that to make a good tomato sauce you had to cook it for 6 hours; I had many an Italian cook tell me that after mentioning that I had made my 30-minit sauce. This one sounds delightful and I can just about taste it now! But I know darn well that I will mince up one whole garlic clove and add a spoonful of sundried tomatoes (in oil) to the sauce. :)
