It will take that sweetness away almost immediately. I tried this trick when my husband made a huge pot of spaghetti sauce, once I added about a quarter cup of white vinegar to it, it was perfect.

(170) Contact When my husband cooks homemade sauce and it's too sweet he slowly adds 1/2 worchestershire sauce and 1/2 soy sauce, both reduced sodium, to the pot. It only takes a tiny amount but it takes the extra sweetness out and gives it a really nice flavor Posted on 08/28/2004 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Making Spaghetti Sauce Less Sweet By sshep (18) Contact I would, and I always do, make spaghetti sauce from scratch with this: Cook some carrots and mash them and add to sauce.The amount depends on the amount of sauce you have to do. I have also used jarred baby food carrots to a prepared sauce. Mashed of course. (I am 61 and still keep baby food on hand.)

Contact That's what I was going to suggest also--mixing it 50/50 with one you know is not sweet. I did that with salsa one year, except I must have put too much salt into it. I purposely made my next batch withoug salt, then mixed the two jars when opening. It was fine. Posted on 08/27/2004 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Making Spaghetti Sauce Less Sweet By Jonid (16) Contact Genny, a number of years ago I canned a gazillion quarts of unseasoned tomato sauce and the sauce was so sweet I couldn't use it at full strength. I hadn't added any sugar at all. The variety of tomato I used contained a lot of natural sugar (Pink Brandywine). Since then, I have had good luck with tomato varieties labeled "high acid content" or "old fashioned tomato flavor" and stay away from those that emphasize sweetness. Good canning varieties include Big Boy, Rutgers, Celebrity, Campbell's, Mountain Delight, Arkansas Traveler, Roma, Amish Paste.....just to name a few. Try to stay away from pink tomatoes for canning because they contain a lot of natural sugar. My mother, on the other hand, loves sweet tomato sauce and loves the sweet flavor the pink tomatoes give. Heinz makes a sugar-free canned spaghetti sauce that's very tasty. Perhaps you could mix it half @ half with your current sauce. Good Luck!
