Forget sugar. Forget the rush. This is the ultimate Sugo della Nonna, the only authentic Italian tomato sauce recipe you’ll ever need.
In this video, I show you how to build deep flavour using time, gentle heat, and technique, not meat. We take San Marzano tomatoes and cook them low and slow until silky and rich, balanced naturally with a classic Nonna trick to fix acidity without sugar.
Once the sugo is ready, we transform it into an incredible Pasta al Forno (Italian Pasta Bake). The pasta stays al dente, the sauce stays loose, and the mozzarella and Parmigiano form the perfect golden crust. Simple food. Done properly. No shortcuts.

BUONO!👍 Delizioso!
So good I am trying this special pasta tomorrow 😊
5:00 The problem with Mozzarella in my country is the brands we have are so tasteless, it is like the most tasteless thing I have ever tasted. Or maybe it is better to say mozzarella is the thing I never tasted. I think the brand is called "Galbani". It is the most tasteless thing ever. It is just white and that is it. Nothing.
으아 꿀거덕 🤗🤗🤗
💖💖💖🌿🌸✨thank you very much💖💖 🤩💖💖🍀
By the way those cans are definitely not san marzano tomatoes and probably just regular roma. Mutti does do san marzano in a can but it is not those cans
Thank you for the recipe. Background music is calming.🎉
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Recipes like that are in the heart of the Mediterranean cuisine ..plenty of sunkissed tomatoes ,herbs and all,olive oil,cheese in every imaginable shape and flavour..wine and our hearts at the table❤❤❤
Chef Joel, this is the best. I can't wait to make it❤Sending love from Canada ❤🇨🇦 to you, adorable Kenji and friend
Great recipe. I can imagine this with more vegetables including broccoli, onions, red peppers..
Kenji’s such a big boi now ! ❤️
The pasta looks amazing and so easy to make, dinner for tomorrow! Love Kenji living his best life at the beach!
nice dish , although i think i would add some breadcrumbs [crotons] to the top to soak up some of that lovely sauce….but that view at the end, with that red skyline is to die for…..ah well but to the grey leaden skies of england for me 😛 we do have the advantage of it not being that hot, i guess :O)
🥰
😋😋🐶🐶❤️❤️
I enjoyed your cooking so much Chef Joel. You made it so effortlessly 😅. I tried some of your recipes.. I liked what I made from your recipes.. Thanks.. And yes, Kenji is such a good boy and cutie
Hi Chef, That has got to be the most delicious sauce ever. I will try this with my favorite pasta farfalle. Kenji & his friend, the beach, that gorgeous horizon a great way to kick start one's day.
Món của nước ý thật hấp dẫn 🫰💯💐🌺🌸
This looks so good. Pasta is my most favorite food, as is red sauce. Even Kenji's eyes widened. Stay cool and have fun at the beach.
Looks absolutely fab! Will definitely try….may have to make it slightly more saucy 😊 for a …where’s the sauce/it needs more sauce husband….but that’s not a problem, just a little less pasta!! Love mutti and always have a stock of tins in my garage, will try soon. Thank you!

Hello, handsome sous-chef, Kenji ❤❤ Joel, you are talking my language here – not quite but almost a dump-n-bake! Oh yummmo!
The recipe is lovely and it was so much fun to see Kenji enjoying with his friend.
Im obsessed with your channel….your cooking style & of course 'The Kenji' ❤❤❤
❤❤🎉
Ok. Pasta tomorrow!
I'm happy Kenji got that experience!
Boy, I even cannot imagine eating anything like this. 😂
Looks good indeed. I went over to the printed menu area. My anti-virus had a fit about the "print here" in the recipe. Is that your print here, or just an abomination that your web hosting service is allowing to pop up on your wonderful website?
Noice.
I made this for dinner Monday night and it was bloody delicious! I used three pork ribs because like bacon, more is better! Will definitely be making this again as it was packed with so much flavour. Cooking the sauce for three hours makes a world of difference.
