I modified the fantastic original recipe by adding the fennel seeds and the basil to add a flavor backbone. While you must try the original recipe – which is outstanding due to its sumptuous simplicity – this variation provides an interesting alternative. The slow-cooked sauce with the gentle fennel flavor adds a cool nuance to an already perfect recipe. (Of course, this assumes you enjoy the fennel flavor.) I have also considering smashing or pureeing the cooked onions and adding it to the sauce. The recipe takes time but it is completely worth the patience. Guaranteed, you’ll be thrilled with how accomplished you’ll feel when you taste this.
