This filetto di pomodoro recipe comes from my friend Julia’s recipe box.
Julia is an amazing Italian cook. I always say, she could make leather taste good! She always has a jar of this homemade filetto di pomodoro sauce on hand; she makes it from scratch in the summer when tomatoes are at their peak and cans them to use throughout the year.
When fresh home-grown tomatoes aren’t an option, she uses imported canned tomatoes from Italy, which is what I’ve included in the recipe below. But, of course, when you can get fresh tomatoes, use those instead!
