To prepare, simply heat the sauce gently in a saucepan over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until it is warmed through. Avoid boiling the sauce, as this can alter its texture and flavor. You can add a splash of water or broth if you prefer a thinner consistency. It is excellent when combined with your favorite cooked pasta, or it can be used as a component in baked dishes like lasagna or as a topping for dishes such as baked ziti. It also works well as a base for other sauces.
