| 1. Empty Hunts chunky crushed tomatoes, stewed tomatoes, and Hunts tomato paste into the pot. Add the extra-virgin olive oil to the pot. | 2. Slice the cloves of garlic crosswise into either halves or thirds or pieces, and dump them into the pot. | 3. Dice the shallot, and dump that into the pot. Add the rest of the ingredients, except the ground beef and finely chopped onion, and stir to mix well with a large long handled wooden spoon. | 4. Do not strain, as the pulp adds to make this a thick and wonderful sauce. | 5. Cover and cook on medium heat, stirring every 10 minutes for about an hour or until it bubbles and is completely heated throughout. | 6. Reduce heat to simmer, and continue to simmer, stirring every 10 or 15 minutes to keep from burning or sticking to the bottom of the pot for 1 or 2 hours. | 7. While the sauce is simmering, brown the ground beef and the finely chopped onion in a skillet. When the beef is browned, add the beef and finely chopped onion into the sauce. | 8. If the sauce is too thick for your liking, add a little red wine or water. Remove from heat and give it one last stir. | 9. NOTE: Use only Hunts Chunky Crushed Tomatoes and Hunts Tomato Paste. Conagra Foods makes both Angela Mia and Hunts, so Angela Mia would also be alright to use. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
