« on: December 21, 2020, 10:21:25 AM »
Seeing as how some have bought up all the spaghetti sauce seasoning and no stores have any,  do any of you fellows make your own I usually buy Mc  Cormic  zesty Italian but the gougers wont 5.00 per pack, regular price is less than 2.00. can you share your receipt for the dry spices?

I have a large bottle of dry Italian spices which I mix with equal amounts of tomato sauce, water and melted butter.
And most of the time I also mix in some chili pepper.

Homemade Spaghetti Sauce

Ingredients
1 Tbsp olive oil
1 lb 85% lean ground beef
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 small yellow onion, finely chopped (1 cup)
3 garlic cloves, minced (1 Tbsp)
1 (28 oz) can crushed tomatoes (recommend Hunt's for best flavor and consistency)
3/4 cup water, or as needed
2 1/2 Tbsp tomato paste
1/4 cup (packed) chopped fresh basil*
3/4 tsp dried oregano
1/4 cup finely shredded parmesan, plus more for serving
Chopped fresh parsley, for garnish (optional)
-----------------------------------------------

Ingredients in Spaghetti Meat Sauce

Olive Oil: choose a high-quality olive oil to brown the meat and sauté the onions and garlic. This will only add to the flavor.

Ground Beef: the type of ground beef is entirely up to and you can also switch out the ground beef for ground sausage.

Yellow Onion: the onion brings a mild bite to the sauce that is a key flavor in spaghetti sauce.

Garlic Cloves: these minced cloves bring the most powerful flavor that is so common in Italian recipes. Using freshly minced garlic will also bring about the best flavor.

Tomato Paste: adding the tomato paste helps to thicken the sauce, but it also brings a strong flavor that is heightened when stirred in and cooked after the onions and garlic are cooked.
Diced Tomatoes or Crushed Tomatoes: for a smoother sauce use crushed tomatoes and for a chunkier sauce go with diced tomatoes. Either one makes a delicious sauce.
Water: this helps to bring the sauce together and you can use more or less to thicken it.

Dried Oregano: this classic spice adds a peppery flavor to the sauce.

Grated Parmesan Cheese: Adding parmesan cheese is optional, but strongly suggested for that delicious cheesy flavor.

Fresh Basil: the fresh aroma of this peppery flavored leaf also adds a small hint of mint.

Dry ingredients?

99 cent store Italian seasoning
Onion powder
Garlic powder
Garlic salt
Black pepper
Red pepper
Thyme
Adjust portions to personal preference 
Needless to say, less is more with pepper

That's weird that the store bought
sauce is scarce in your area.
Plenty around here. I should add
that the long proper spaghetti
noodles have been scarce here
for a long time and I just buy and
use macaroni noodles for everything
now. Cheaper and easier to find and
just keeping one kind of noodles on
hand. I made some spaghetti-roni
a day ago. Ground beef, noodles, sauce,
mushrooms, onions, garlic, parmesan,
sharp cheddar, peppers
18 MINUTES.  . . . . . .

We’ve started leaning more toward Alfredo sauce for all pasta except noodles, and homemade noodles is gonna be our CHRISTmas dinner.

I'm not a big fan of Italian food including spaghetti but my wife makes a killer sauce that makes it OK. I don't know everything that goes in in it but hamburger, tomatoes, and green chiles are the main ingredients. Don't laugh about the green chilies until you try it. It really peps it up.

I won’t laugh, there’s two cans of chopped green chilies in our cupboard right no.
Those and chili powder are used often.

Some of the recipes I looked listed chiles , as one chooses, in the recipe also.
Up here you have a vast choice, and I mean vast,  of bottled Italian sauces, not just for spaghetti, I like ones with green olives best but have had ones made darn near every vegetable but thankfully not beans.
