What is the difference between marinara sauce and tomato sauce?
They can be similar but the two sauces differences are the consistency, although they share similar ingredients. Marinara sauce is thinner than tomato sauce.
Is marinara sauce just tomato sauce?
Marinara is tomato sauce, but it’s a thinner, simplier sauce that cooks very quickly: It only needs to simmer for about an hour. The sauce gets its characteristic flavor by the addition of garlic, crushed red pepper flakes and herbs like basil and oregano.
What is the difference between marinara sauce and spaghetti sauce?
One of the key differences is that pasta sauce is more robust and complex, with a longer ingredient list and rich flavor. Marinara does not typically contain meat (while spaghetti sauce does), giving it a thinner texture. Marinara is traditionally used as a dipping sauce, while pasta sauce is not.
