red sauces
Pasta's crimson toppings
Red sauces are tomato-based sauces used in cooking, especially the marinara and similar preparations central to Italian-American cuisine.
The term distinguishes them from cream-based white sauces or olive oil preparations: I prefer red sauce on my pasta.
A red sauce joint is a casual Italian-American restaurant serving traditional fare like spaghetti and meatballs.
