I love to find ways of making my pasta dishes just that little bit more special and I think I’ve now found the ultimate pasta sauce. This pasta sauce doesn’t just have cream in it, it has pancetta and vermouth to make this the most deliciously rich and tasty cream sauce of your life! This will become one of your favorite weeknight pasta sauces to dish up to your family. Guaranteed!

What Goes with Tomato Cream Sauce?

This dish is so versatile you can eat it with your favorite pasta, or over chicken, add a side of delicious Homemade Garlic bread and you have a weeknight feast all the family will love. The choice is yours! You should always use the best quality tomatoes you can find. It really does make a difference to the taste of your sauce. Heavy cream, whipping cream, double cream in the UK, and thickened cream in Australia are all good options. San Marzano tomatoes are a high-quality tomato with a sweet flavor and little acidity. Legally, and to be called a San Marzano, this tomato has to be grown in the Sarno Valley in Italy and there will be a DOP symbol on the can. This recipe calls for crushed tomatoes, but I use whole canned tomatoes that I crush myself. These can be put through a food mill, crushed, blended, or pureed in a food processor before using.

Step by Step Instructions

Cook pancetta on medium-high heat until brown and crispy. Remove any excess grease from the pan, leaving about a teaspoon. Cook onion until translucent. Add garlic, cook until fragrant. Add the vermouth to the pan and cook for 3 to 4 minutes. Add tomatoes and stir until combined. Lower the heat and let simmer for a further five minutes. Stir in the cream, parmesan cheese and parsley. Taste for seasoning and add salt and pepper as needed. Serve and enjoy!

Alternatively, you can add a 1/2 tablespoon of sugar at a time until the bitterness neutralizes. Erren’s Kitchen is written and produced for informational intentions only.
