- Don't burn the garlic! This ravioli Pomodoro recipe is made with a few simple ingredients, so cooking them right is essential. Make sure the garlic doesn't go brown, or it may ruin the taste of the sauce.
- Use whole tomatoes. Whole tomatoes pack more umami flavor than diced tomatoes. If you can, try to pick the highest-quality, preferably Italian canned tomatoes.
- To add some kick to the recipe, add red pepper flakes! While traditional Pomodoro sauce isn't spicy, you can make it your own by adding a pinch of red pepper flakes for heat.
- If you don't have an immersion blender, you can use a regular blender or a food processor instead. Just make sure to let the sauce cool before blending and leave the whole in the lid open so that steam can escape.
