Parma Style Tomato Sauce
This versatile tomato sauce can be used in many applications...but equally delicious right over pasta!
Ingredients:
- 4 T. The Olive Tap’s 100% Extra Virgin Olive Oil (your favorite)
- 1 medium onion, very finely chopped
- 1/2 C. red wine

- 1/2 C. romano or parmesan cheese.
- 3-4 large basil leaves, chopped
