Food is the great universal topic. Go anywhere and talk with just about anyone and know that after pleasantries are exchanged, the conversation will almost always get around to food..eating it, buying it, preparing it. We love to talk about the parties we've attended, bar-b-ques we've hosted, dinners we've made, the desserts we've savored and the recipes we've mastered. I think we are lucky in that our conversations always come back to food in some capacity or another. It's always best when food is shared, both across the table and with our words. Come..let's share the bounty! Cooks talk!

A simple marinara sauce!

All good cooks know shortcuts, or ways to get a good but simple meal to the table in minutes. good cooks know what to stock, what is essential and what they have to have on hand to pull off not only a satisfying meal but a healthy one as well.

Making a tasty tomato sauce is one of the easiest and most enjoyable kitchen experiences going. Who is not beguiled by the scent of simmering sauce, redolent with garlic and basil? Who can pass up a tasty plate of noodles and sauce, especially if it's accompanied by a nice crisp loaf of fresh bread and cool, refreshing side salad?

Savor the following NY Times article and then rush off to your pantry and get out the makings for this simple and delightfully basic sauce!
