Analyzing cooking steps...
For the best flavor, use plum tomatoes (or San Marzano tomatoes).
Puréeing the canned tomatoes in a food processor or blender creates a beautifully smooth meat sauce.
Do not skimp on the olive oil, as tomatoes need fat to bring out their best flavor.
Cook the onions and garlic until they are a beautiful golden brown for optimal flavor.
The tomato paste in a tube is very convenient for using just what you need and saving the rest.
Cook the sauce uncovered to allow it to thicken and the flavors to concentrate.
You can adjust the cooking time for the sauce based on your preference for a juicier (less cooking time) or thicker (more cooking time) sauce.
Feel free to add other desired spices or even substitute ground beef with other meats like bison or reindeer, as humorously suggested.
