Thanks for the recipe and the history of the sauce. I am going to try
the recipe out!

Btw, people, check out Bertolli's new website. Whether or not you
believe in store bought or homemade, there are some interesting
recipes and check out the new selection of products, either in jars,
frozen, or refrigerated sections of your grocery store. You will be
hungry after visiting the site:
