How To Cook Arrabiata Sauce :

1. Heat the olive oil: Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil to a pan over medium-high heat.
2. Cook the red pepper flakes, garlic, and onion: Stir in the crushed red pepper flakes, minced garlic, and chopped onion until they soften and release their fragrance.
3. Add the wine (or broth): Pour in the white wine (or chicken broth) and whisk to deglaze the pan, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom.
4. Reduce the liquid: Cook until the liquid reduces by half.
5. Add the tomatoes and seasoning: Stir in the crushed tomatoes and Italian seasoning until well combined.
6. Season and simmer: Add a pinch of sugar, salt, and freshly ground black pepper. Lower the heat and let the sauce simmer for 30 minutes.
7. Cool and store: Let the sauce cool completely, then divide it into 4 portions. Place each portion into freezer bags and freeze for future use.

Recipe Tips

• Choose the Right Tomatoes: Use high-quality crushed tomatoes for the best flavor. San Marzano tomatoes are a great option if you can find them.
• Adjust the Spice Level: If you like it spicier, feel free to add more crushed red pepper flakes. Start with a little and taste as you go.
• Fresh Herbs: For extra flavor, try adding fresh basil or parsley at the end of cooking. This adds brightness to the sauce.
• Wine vs. Broth: Using white wine adds depth to the sauce, but if you prefer not to use alcohol, chicken broth works just as well.
• Let It Simmer: Allow the sauce to simmer for the full 30 minutes. This helps develop the flavors and makes the sauce richer and tastier.

How To Store & Reheat Leftovers

• Refrigerate: Let the leftover Arrabiata Sauce cool to room temperature. Then, put it in an airtight container and store it in the fridge for up to 4 days.
• Freeze: After cooling, put leftover Arrabiata Sauce in freezer bags or containers. Seal well and freeze for up to 3 months. To thaw, place it in the fridge overnight or use cold water for a few hours before reheating.
• Reheating:To reheat leftover Arrabiata Sauce, transfer it to a saucepan and heat over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally until warmed through for 15 minutes. You can also microwave leftover Arrabiata Sauce in a microwave-safe bowl, covering it with a microwave-safe lid, and heat in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until hot.
