A little ketchup will balance it out. Its best to add all ingredients a little at a time.

Learn not to put sugar in spaghetti sauce, tomatoes are naturally sweet. We eat too much sugar in this country, anyway. Peel a large potato and stick in whole. The potato will soak up the sugar (same as putting in too much salt.) Leave in for 15 - 20 minutes and remove potato. If the sauce is on the thick side you can use a little water to thin it down. The above poster is right, you don't need sugar! Get a good recipe for spaghetti sauce with some fresh herbs added instead.

How do you get the sour taste out of spaghetti sauce?

Well you said TASTE, so Im assuming youre just wanting to ease the tomato flavor.... try a dash of sugar. Sparingly. It tones down the tomato taste. Because tomatoes are acidic, you are definitely going to have and acidic taste. Instead of using sauce, try just butter or olive oil. If you are worried about heartburn from the sauce, take pepcid ac, zantac, or tagament about 1hr before you eat and have some tums in your pocket for after you eat. The only way to offset the acid is to have something alkaline.


What is the difference between marinara sauce and spaghetti sauce?

"Spaghetti" actually refers to the shape of the pasta, and in the US "marinara" refers to the sauce. You can use whatever sauce you want on spaghetti, but it's best suited to lighter sauces with not a lot of big chunks, like a simple drizzle of olive oil and crushed garlic, or a carbonara. "Spaghetti" is actually plural for "spaghetto" which translates to "twine" in Italian. In Italy you would say the type of pasta and then mention the sauce too. So the classic spaghetti dish we know in the US would be called "Spaghetti alla marinara".
