Fixing Over Spiced Spaghetti Sauce

WOW! Tina! Great advice! Post by luvvy (25) | (02/04/2008) Contact Thanks for ALL the helpful answers, but Tina said... "In my sauce, I use baking soda and sugar, never do I use oregano for spagetti sauce." So then I decided to try a little baking soda in my next batch & WOW! .... NO HEARTBURN! Still tasted great! No baking soda taste, just NONE of us got the usual heartburn! Fantastic tip! Thanks a bunch!

Try measuring the spice into a small dish and THEN putting it into the pot. Eventually you will train your eye/hand co-ordination and can go back to standing over the pot again.

The holes in the salt shaker are larger than those in the pepper shaker. That method fixed it.

In my sauce, I use baking soda and sugar, never do I use oregano for spagetti sauce. Or you can cook up some country style pork ribs, let simmer in the sauce. Pork really makes your sauce.

If it's too much for a meal, just freeze the rest for later Report This Post RE: Fixing Over Spiced Spaghetti Sauce Post By Barbara (Guest Post) (10/28/2007) For the spaghetti you can add a can of tomatoes or a can of tomato sauce to help tame the spices. If it makes too much, just freeze the excess and then you will only have to thaw and heat the next time you want spaghetti. I don't know about the meatloaf. Good Luck. Report This Post
