if you're gonna do a fish thing, try frying a little anchovy paste or minced anchovy with your garlic before adding the sauce. you can't taste the actual anchovy, but it adds another one of those levels of deliciousness.
what a nice bro!!! Can I borrow him sometime???me & my brother used to make sketti & clams, too. delish, i say!
I make a store bought spaghetti sauce much better by adding a package of dry spaghetti sauce mix and canned diced tomatoes, Italian flavored . For my meat I cook ground beef and breakfast sausage using ether hot or sage. It makes a very good spaghetti
I do the same as you (Jimmy Dean sausage if I don't use clams or shrimp) and some red wine, some dried onions and fresh garlic..........a little sugar if necessary and mushooms and some dried Italian herbs........other than that I don't doctor it at all
