Email- Make your own sauce, if you can. Professional chefs say that homemade pasta sauce trumps even the best jarred varieties. Making your own also allows you to control the levels of salt and sugar. Furthermore, making your own requires few ingredients and doesn't take any longer than it does to cook the pasta.
- Heat it gently. The most credible reviews say you should heat pasta sauce just until hot. Further heating may diminish the flavor.
- Check the label. The best commercial sauces don't contain corn syrup or preservatives, and they aren't overloaded with sodium or sugar. You can always add salt or sugar to a sauce that's slightly under-seasoned for your taste.
