Rao’s Homemade Pasta Sauces

There is a cult following of Rao’s Homemade Pasta Sauce, soups, and entrees.   It also doesn’t hurt that the writers at Bon Appetit magazine have dubbed Rao’s the BEST jarred pasta sauce on the market.   The pasta sauce has no added sugar, which already makes it unique among the sea of pasta sauces on the shelf.

From the moment the Rao family began creating authentic Italian pasta sauces served in Rao’s legendary New York restaurant, and later at Rao’s Las Vegas and Rao’s Los Angeles, creating a delicious sauce made from only the finest ingredients has been an obsession. 

Rao’s uses high-quality tomatoes and olive oil, without any added preservatives or coloring. The rest of the ingredients won’t surprise you: salt, pepper, onions, garlic, basil, and oregano. 

Rao’s marinara sauce is very well-balanced with a sweetness that comes solely from tomatoes, onions, and garlic with no added sugar. 

While all of these flavors and ratios are important, there’s one ingredient that sticks out more than the rest. In fact, you can tell it’s there immediately. Rao’s uses a large amount of olive oil.   You can see it sitting right on top of the sauce before you even crack open the jar.  That oil is the key to a fantastic, well-rounded marinara.

The pasta sauce is not cheap – but if you are into homemade tasting pasta sauce without any added sugar – the $7.99 a jar price point may be nothing to you. 

You can pick up Rao’s Pasta Sauce for just $4.99 with a coupon stack at Safeway.   You’ll save $3 a jar.

I did try the sauces and was definitely impressed – super delicious flavor.  Is it $4 better than Classico?  I’ll let you decide, but it was good.
