Maybe you people have already put in your recipes for Italian Spaghetti
Sauce, but I didn't get the chance to read them. If so, please put them
in again. I really like the spaghetti sauce with Italian sausage in
it.

There are ott many variations of spaghetti sauce to be effective. I would
suggest you do a google search for Italian Gravy. You will get many many
recipes and most I am syre are good as is the one listed below. To me there are
3 primary elements:

A. I like to use some form of pork with baones as a base.
B. Use the best possible quality ingredients that one can afford.
C. Fimally, simmer the sauce (just below boiling) for a long time. This form
of Italian Gravy has been recently refered to as 7 hour sauce
for good reason.

Example:

INGREDIENTS:
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 large yellow onion, diced
1 clove garlic, minced
4 pounds pork shoulder roast
1/2 cup white wine
3 cups water
2 teaspoons dried oregano
2 teaspoons dried parsley
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1 teaspoon dried rosemary
3 tablespoons garlic powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
2 (28 ounce) cans tomato puree
6 cups water
1/4 cup white sugar

DIRECTIONS:
Heat olive oil in a large stock pot over medium heat. Saute onions and garlic
until lightly browned. Place pork shoulder in pot, and pour in 1/2 cup white
wine and 3 cups water. In a small bowl, combine oregano, parsley, thyme,
rosemary, garlic powder, salt and pepper. Sprinkle 1/4 of spice mixture over
pork. Cover, and cook for 30 minutes turning occasionally. Add water
periodically if needed.
Pour in tomato puree. Fill cans with water, and pour in (about 6 cups). Stir in
remaining spice mixture and the sugar. When liquid starts to bubble, reduce heat
to low, cover, and cook for 4 to 5 hours. Stir occasionally, and adjust
seasonings to taste.

What do you mean for "Italian Spaghetti Sauce"? I Am italian and I can make
a million of Spaghetti sauce 🙂
There isn't a particular sauce for Spaghetti. You can make a tomato sauce
only with garlic and basil (it goes well in summer); but you can make an
heavy sauce with meat (the classic Ragù) that goes well for the winter.
You can season spaghetti also with Pesto sauce, or you can make "Spaghetti
alla Carbonara"; spaghetti with clams or "Spaghetti Aglio e Olio"; spaghetti
with mushrooms or spaghetti with caviar! All these are Italian Spaghetti
sauce 🙂
Do you need some in particular?

spaghetti with clams

Pandora,

Once we were at my friends house playing poker and his wife made two
large trays of spaghetti, one which had spaghetti with garlic and clams.
It was the first time I'd tried it and it was delicious!!!

I slept on their sofa and the next morning when I woke up, I filled
another plate with cold garlic and clam spaghetti. It was like waking up
in heaven!!!

🙂

Pasta Romana? i used to work at a northern Italian restaurant where the
chef made his own sausage with fennel and served it over pasta with a
tomato sauce, the restaurant is now defunct and the last i heard the
chef hospitalized for 'nervous exhaustion' i have tried for years to
duplicate his excellent sauce but to date to no good effect.

Im convinced the primary ingredient ws the sausage but he made his own
tomato sauce, with a fish stock iirc.

Nothern Italy? Where?
The pasta that you say perhaps, is "Pasta with sarde". A typical sicialian
dish. They put inside pasta fish and fennel..but only the leaves of fennel
(we call it "finocchio selvatico"😉

Pandora's pasta with oil and garlic (adding some bottled clam juice,
white wine and chopped parsley) would be a good beginning with clams.
I don't use fresh.... so I open up cans of whole... found in Asian
grocery stores.

Have you ever tried the pasteurized clams in the refrigerated section?
That's what I use for chowder. I think they'd be good lightly sautéed in
olive oil, perhaps along with the garlic.

Is it difficult to find fresh clams, there in America?
