Grab a medium pan and—wait for it—actually measure your oil. You need about two tablespoons of olive oil (or butter, if you’re feeling rebellious) for every three tablespoons of paste. Heat the oil until it shimmers, then dump in the paste and stir it like you’re trying to win a spaghetti arms contest. You’ll see it darken and start sticking to the pan a little—this is good.

Now, for the liquid: add about one cup of water—or better yet, pasta water (the starchy, salty stuff is liquid gold). Stir until the paste dissolves into a smooth, brick-red sauce.

Don’t stop there. This is where you become a pantry alchemist. Add one clove of garlic (minced, or if you’re lazy, just crushed and fished out later) and let it sizzle for thirty seconds. Then, a pinch of red pepper flakes (unless you hate fun), and a splash of balsamic vinegar or red wine vinegar. The acid cuts the sweetness and makes the paste taste like it simmered for hours.

Here’s a weird but brilliant tip: toss in a half-teaspoon of sugar even if the paste already seems sweet. It balances the acidity from the tomatoes and the vinegar, creating a smoother, more “restaurant” flavor. You can also add a tiny pinch of baking soda if the sauce tastes too sharp—it will fizz like a science experiment and then calm down.
