PastaBasic Meat Sauce
Brown ground beef in a large pot or skillet along with a 1 or 2 tbs Olive oil, onion and chopped garlic. Breakup the ground beef as it cooks to form small pieces. Cook until meat redness just disappears and onion is transparent. If necessary, drain off excess fat. If you use Chuck or Sirloin, there should be no excess fat. Add remaining ingredients including two tomato paste cans filled with water. Rinse crushed tomato can with 1/4 can water and pour into mix. Simmer slowly for at least an hour. Stir often to prevent burning the bottom. Basic Mushroom Sauce

Add mushrooms and sauté for 5 - 10 minutes. Add remaining ingredients including two tomato paste cans filled with water. Rinse crushed tomato can with 1/4 can water and pour into mix. Simmer slowly for at least an hour. Stir often to prevent burning the bottom. Basic Meatball Sauce
Prepare the Basic Sauce then add the meatballs. You may need to simmer a little longer in order to enable all of the flavors to mix. Basic Italian Sausage Sauce
Brown ground beef in a large pot or skillet along with a 1 or 2 tbs Olive oil, onion and chopped garlic. Breakup the ground beef as it cooks to form small pieces. Cook until meat redness just disappears and onion is transparent. Add Anise seed to the ground beef as it cooks. If you have a very large skillet, you can cook the sausage along with the ground beef. I like to cook the ground beef on one side and the sausage on the other side of a 14 inch skillet and mix them together as the ground beef begins to brown. If you don't have the large skillet, you will need to cook the sausage in a separate pot or skillet and combine everything later.. If necessary, drain off excess fat. If you use Chuck or Sirloin, there should be no excess fat. Optionally, add mushrooms and sauté for 5 - 10 minutes. Add remaining ingredients including two tomato paste cans filled with water. Rinse crushed tomato can with 1/4 can water and pour into mix. Simmer slowly for at least an hour. Stir often to prevent burning the bottom. Linguini
Add 1 TBS Olive Oil to water in a large pot. Cover and bring to a boil. When boiling rapidly, remove cover and add Linguini. Bring back to a boil and cook for 10 minutes (4 if fresh). The Linguini should be al Dante (soft but not over cooked). Drain the Linguini and serve with Sauce over the top.
