Blush Sauce is a creamy, tomato-based pasta sauce that blends the tanginess of ripe tomatoes with the richness of cream. Originating from Italian-American cuisine, this sauce achieves a velvety texture and a delicate pink hue by combining marinara and heavy cream. Its key ingredients often include crushed tomatoes, garlic, olive oil, cream, and optional seasonings like basil or oregano. While indulgent in flavor, Blush Sauce can be high in calories and saturated fat due to the cream content. On the healthier side, the tomatoes provide antioxidants such as lycopene, which supports heart health and reduces inflammation. Some recipes lighten the sauce by substituting lower-fat dairy alternatives or olive oil. Perfect for pairing with pasta, seafood, or vegetables, Blush Sauce balances comfort and decadence with a nod to wholesome ingredients.
