Tomato Sauce
Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 2 cups chopped yellow onions
- 1/2 cup chopped carrots
- 1/2 cup chopped celery
- 1/2 teaspoon salt, plus more to taste
- 1/4 teaspoon cayenne
- 1/4 cup thinly sliced garlic (5 to 6 cloves)
- 1 cup dry red wine

Directions
- Heat the oil in a large heavy stockpot over medium-high heat. Add the onions, carrots, and celery and season with the salt and cayenne. Cook, stirring often, until the onions are soft and golden, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and stir until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the red wine and cook until reduced by half, about 5 minutes.

Reduce the heat to medium-low. Simmer, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until reduced nearly by half, about 3 hours. Season with additional salt to taste.
