I don't make homemade pasta and I'm not about to start. But my local grocery store regularly having buy 1 get 1 free sales on more expensive pasta (like Rao's and even the fancier store brand pasta ) has been lifechanging. I am now spoiled and will never touch Mueller's again.
Related, this is awesome: https://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/giada-de-laurentiis/spaghetti-with-lemon-and-zucchini-1-8815426
I drizzled my olive oil sauce* that I'm putting on everything on it and ate a bigger plate of pasta than I have since I was on the swim team in high school.
*To about a cup of olive oil, add some lemon juice, honey, Italian seasoning, basil, and salt. I am putting this on absolutely everything lately. Pasta, bread, veggies, chicken, fruit, cheese -- I dunked a dark chocolate bar in it and it was good. I should probably look up if there's a health risk to eating too much olive oil.

Honestly once I learned a nice simple pasta sauce recipe I never looked back and just use tomato paste/puree/canned tomatoes, garlic, onions, crushed peppers and italian seasoning for a base sauce. Costs a fraction and is generally wayyy better. And yeah if you’re making sauce there is no real difference between canned and fresh.
Look, I’m not disputing homemade is best. It is. I’m just saying if Rao’s is on sale it’s got so much flavor and it sure doesn’t taste like what that clown said

Feeling Saucy
I love it when brands break through the clutter and find a way to succeed. It’s even better when a specific demographic is the one pushing the brand forward. I just never would have expected a high-priced spaghetti sauce being the darling of younger adults.
Rao’s Marinara Sauce, please take the stage.
The last six to eight years have seen the brand catapulted to rock star status, which is pretty amazing when you consider how mainstream brands like Ragu and Prego, with their affordable prices, have dominated for years. Stir in store brands, which sometimes sells for $2 or less per jar, and there doesn’t seem like much room for a premium-priced item that pours just the same as the others.
It has done so well that the brand was recently bought by The Campbell’s Company—you know, the soup people—and they plan to put a lot of money behind their move, starting today. A new ad campaign that will air during college and pro football games is the first wave, and will culminate in a float during the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade.
Tumblr media
Never mind turkey dinners and all that, Rao’s is promoting Pasta Knight, a little wordplay based on a tradition in many households. That’s a gutsy move considering that seasonal foods tend to veer far away from spaghetti and red sauce.
And, as I mentioned, young people are responsible for much of this. Rao’s sells for $6 to $10 depending on the size jar, putting it far above competitors. My Gen-Z step-daughter loves it, even though she could buy three jars of the store brand for the same price. In fact, the company thinks its high price is exactly what makes it so popular. Price is being used as a surrogate indicator of quality.
But if you look at the ingredients of Rao’s—Italian Whole Peeled Tomatoes, Olive Oil, Onions, Salt, Garlic, Basil, Black Pepper, Oregano—you begin to see the difference. The jar of Trader Joe’s Tomato Basil sauce on my shelf lists all of the above, but also a smidge of dried parsley, a blend of soybean oil and EVOO, sugar, and tomato paste.
There you have it. Rao’s does not have sugar in it or any of those other additives, and derives its flavor strictly from the spices used and tomatoes imported from southern Italy. Interestingly, it has 10 more calories per serving than the TJ’s sauce does, but it is a very pure rendition of an Italian sauce.
But worth 3X the price? Apparently the young adults in the store say yes. Maybe it is viewed as an affordable indulgence. Unless it is Pasta Knight every night, this isn’t going to break the bank. It’s a treat, not a home menu staple.
Maybe that’s what Walmart was thinking when it introduced its bettergoods private label line aimed at Millennials and Gen-Zers. They are decidedly more upscale, with the price and ingredients reflecting that. Once again, affordable indulgences. I love their salsas, and am not one bit worried I am 30 years removed from their target customers.
As for the campaign, the 15-second spots stress authenticity. It comes off as being homemade Italian sauce far better than competitors with Italian names borrowed strictly for marketing purposes. “Prego” translates to “you’re welcome,” while “Ragu” is “meat sauce.” Ragu is made by a Japanese food company. Interestingly, Prego is made by Campbell’s, meaning Rao’s is coming from the same company.
Hmmm. Different brands for different demos. Not the first time this has been done. Can you say Chevy and Cadillac?
Campbell’s vows not to tinker with Rao’s ingredients, but it certainly brings a lot to the table. It has money to back the ad campaign as well as the parade float, but more importantly, a lot of clout in supermarkets. It will be able to get shelf placement, including visibility and number of facings, far more easily than before, because Campbell’s is an established company with guaranteed sales.
While at Walmart last night, I did pick up some of the gourmet pastas in the bettergoods line, but passed on Rao’s if only because I didn’t need any more sauce right now. I have bought it on occasion, and it is arguably very good. I do like the fact that it does not have sugar in it, a factor that has found me buying less of the other brands, and actually making my own sauce at home.
But next time I’m going to buy some, because it’s always time for a Pasta Knight.

lazy day | short rib, brisket, & mushroom ragu
Tumblr media
ragu with porcini & truffle mezzelune for 2, served family style There are just times—certainly during many workdays—when we can't fathom the idea of cooking because of the schedules that life demands from you. It is on these nights that we wish for nothing more than to open a few jars, mindlessly throw the contents into a pot, but still have something warm and delicious to devour. And thankfully, some dishes, though not most, are gracious enough to be amenable to shortcuts with the help of the supermarket—this ragu happens to be one of them. It is uncompromisingly delicious, very hearty, and deeply savory due to the short rib and brisket, and the long cooking mellows the subtler notes of the aromatics enough, that using a jar of good quality tomato sauce like Rao's well fulfills the role of homemade marinara. The pestata (which here is really just blended soffritto) dissolves into the ragu as it cooks, and at the end of the braising when most of the liquid has evaporated, adds a subtle creaminess to the sauce, along with that lovely signature taste of bolognese hinted from behind the robust beefy taste that takes forefront stage. And I only add cheese when finishing the dish, instead of adding it into the sauce pre-braise—I find that it muddies the flavor and depth of the ragu. Cleaning the mushrooms is the most time-consuming part of the preparation that you will have to devote in the morning, but the pot should be in the oven and braising within 30 minutes of entering the kitchen. Let the ragu simmer while you're away at work, so once you come back home after a long day, all that's required is to boil some good quality, storebought ravioli for a few minutes, toss in the sauce, turn on the television, and relieve the day's worries with a warm, cozy bowl. Do not skim the fat; it is this fat that stains the pasta a sunset mahogany and gives the ragu its luxurious, velvety mouthfeel.
lazy day | short rib, brisket, & mushroom ragu for 6-8 servings 1 lb (453g) brisket 2 lb (907g) bone-in short rib 1 lb (453g) mushrooms (2 8oz containers) 16.9 oz (479g, about a pint) beef bone broth 24 oz (680g) of a clean-tasting, bright tomato sauce (e.g. standard jar of Rao's marinara or arrabiata) 10 oz (283g) prepared soffritto / mirepoix (1:1:1 onion, celery, carrot) 4 cloves of garlic a little bit of fresh woody herbs, e.g. small sprigs of rosemary, thyme, & marjoram (as in, 1/4 sprig of each), just to impart slight warmth sear meat. in the leftover tallow, sear the mushrooms. blend the soffritto with the garlic, and cook at high heat with olive oil (if extra fat is needed) until the water evaporates. lower the heat and sweat gently for 10 minutes. add bone broth, herbs, tomato sauce, and nestle in the meat and mushrooms, making sure that the bones of the short ribs are submerged. 270F (130C), ~7 hours, with lid slightly ajar. shred the meat with a fork. nutrition (rough approx.): ~2800 kcal, 219g protein (350 - 467 kcal / 27 - 36.5g per serving)

[ad_1] A sizable subset of spaghetti fans congregated online last week week to mourn the potential demise of Rao's Homemade — the famed jarred pasta sauce brand that was acquired by food giant Campbell Soup Company on Monday. Well, to be specific, Rao's still exists as a brand. But Sovos Brands, the maker of Rao's pasta sauces, was purchased by Campbell's as part of a mass takeover that also includes Michael Angelo's Frozen Foods and Noosa Yogurt. The deal is set in stone at this point, considering that both companies entered an agreement for Campbell's to acquire Sovos for $23 per share in cash — which amounts to a total value of about $2.7 billion. It's a major win for Campbell's, who makes Prego sauce and Goldfish crackers alongside its namesake soups. And it's a major win for Sovos Brands, who will reap the benefits of Campbell's established supply chain and will see increased distribution of their products. However, a number of Rao's fans fear their favorite jarred sauce will experience a forthcoming downgrade, worrying that as production goes up the quality will go down. Rao's has been touted as the best pasta sauce to exist on this planet. Seriously, no other jarred pasta sauce can compare. Barilla Marinara? Classico Marinara with Plum Tomatoes? Bertolli Traditional Marinara? Nah, they're not even on the same level. So it makes sense why so many ardent lovers of the brand are wary of what's to come. You could say Rao's fandom is quite cult-like. Of course, it's not literally a cult. But those who stand by the brand truly stand by it. So much so that they're unwilling to accept that there's anything better than Rao's on the market. Take it from Bon Appétit's Alex Delany, who explained that the reason why Rao's reigns supreme is because of its short yet simple ingredients list. "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. You know, the stuff you'd expect to be in tasty marinara," Delany wrote. "And the biggest omission from that list is added sugar. Which already tells you something about how it tastes." Delany added that the sauce is "very well-balanced" on the sweet front and, overall, tastes very homemade. And out of all its listed ingredients, Rao's uses a generous amount of olive oil: "You can see it sitting right on top of the sauce, before you even crack open the jar. We love that commitment to the fatty, olive oil-y side of the sauce. That fat is the key to a fantastic, well-rounded marinara." It's no wonder why Rao's is Ina Garten's go-to jarred sauce. "Of course it's always good to make it yourself, but I find Rao's is fantastic, so store-bought's good, too," Garten said in a 2019 interview with TODAY. Rao's is also a must-have amongst Costco shoppers. And, it was ranked number one on TODAY's list of best jarred pasta sauces. Simply put, Rao's is the "boss of the sauce." Want more great food writing and recipes? Subscribe to Salon Food's newsletter, The Bite. Following Rao's acquisition, fans took to the Costco subreddit to voice their disappointment. Many Redditors expressed an urgency to stock up on jars of the sauce as soon as possible. "I bought some a few weeks ago when it was on sale, I usually have 3-4 jars in case cause I just LOVE the stuff. I'll have to check expiry dates on them but I'll need to grab some more," wrote one user. Another wrote, "Rao's has been my go to sauce when I didn't feel like making one myself." And one heartbroken user simply said, "That sucks. All we have used in [the] past 15-20 years." It's still too early to say what's in store for Rao's future; neither Rao's nor Campbell's has indicated any plans for a formula change. But hopefully, fans of the sauce can continue enjoying it to its fullest. Read more about pasta sauce: [ad_2]
