spaghetti sauce
Red noodle dressing
Spaghetti sauce is a tomato-based sauce served over pasta, typically seasoned with garlic, onion, and herbs like basil and oregano.
It may include meat, vegetables, or remain plain.
The term is casual and domestic—restaurants and cookbooks prefer *marinara*, *Bolognese*, or *pomodoro* to specify style: I made spaghetti sauce from scratch.
