About Tomato and basil sauce

Tomato-and-basil sauce is a prepared sauce in which tomato provides the base and basil supplies a characteristic herbal note. It is commonly used with pasta or as a general savoury sauce. The name alone does not establish a particular recipe, texture or proportion of ingredients.

It may be smooth or chunky, fresh-tasting or cooked down, and can range from bright red to deeper red depending on preparation. Products may include oil, onion, garlic, salt or other seasonings. Nutrition comparisons depend on the ingredient proportions and whether the sauce is homemade, jarred or otherwise processed.
