About Marinara sauce
Marinara sauce is a classic Italian condiment made from simple, wholesome ingredients including tomatoes, garlic, onions, olive oil, herbs, and spices such as basil and oregano. Originating from Southern Italy, this vibrant tomato-based sauce is a staple in Italian cuisine and serves as a versatile base for pasta dishes, pizzas, and dips. Marinara offers nutritional benefits, being naturally low in fat and calories while rich in vitamin C, potassium, and lycopene, an antioxidant found in tomatoes that supports heart health. Traditional recipes use olive oil, a source of healthy fats, though some versions may contain added sugars or excess salt, which can reduce its nutritional value. Choosing homemade or minimally processed marinara ensures a cleaner, healthier option, making it a flavorful and nourishing addition to a balanced diet. Its simplicity and robust flavor have made it a favorite worldwide.
