- Sauteeonion, bell pepper, garlic and carrots in extra virgin olive oil in a 4-quart. saucepan till vegetables are tender (about 10 min). Add in mushrooms and continue cooking 2 or possibly 3 min more.
- Add in tomatoes, bay leaf, aniseed and wine. Simmer, uncovered, stirring occasionally, till sauce thickens (about 1 to 1 1/2 hrs).
- Add in oregano, basil, parsley and lemon balm; stir and simmer 15 to 20 min longer to let flavors mingle.
- Cathy's note: The recipe says nothing about removing the bay leaf afterward, but this is standard practice so which any sharp edges on it don't cause discomfort or possibly physical damage to people.
- The editors wrote: "Selecting a basic herb-tomato sauce from the many, many dozens which were submitted was [a]...chore. This one edged out many other...entries for its simplicity, fresh approach, and the short cooking time after the leafy herbs were added. While many excellent cooks take the 'less is more' approach and add in only fractions of tsp. of herbs, we liked the more assertive style here and the surprising and intriguing addition of lemon balm
- (that cooks out to a mellow hint of not-quite-lemon). This sauce depends on a greater-than-usual amount of minced carrot to cut the acidity of fresh tomatoes."
