Ingredients: 2 to 3 pounds Italian sausage (spicy or sweet Italian sausage links, casings removed, cooked and fat drained, then removed to a bowl, can use 2 1/2 or even 3 pounds for a more chunkier sauce); 7 cans (196 ounces) crushed tomatoes (each can 28 ounces); 4 cans (112 ounces) diced tomatoes (each can 28 ounces, partially drained leaving some juice in the can); 1 cup tomato paste; olive oil (enough to generously coat the bottom of your pot, you will need a fair amount of oil); 4 onions, chopped (medium yellow onions, small diced); 1/4 cup fresh garlic, minced (yes 1/4 cup!); 3 tablespoons dried oregano (rubbed between fingers to release the flavors, do the same with the basil); 3 tablespoons dried basil; 1 tablespoon chili flakes (can omit -- or make this as spicy as you like, I like lots of spice so I use 2 tablespoons); 4 bay leaves (large); 1 to 1 1/2 cup dry red wine; 2 tablespoons salt, or to taste (a good homemade tomato sauce needs a lot of salt so don't be shy on the salt!); fresh ground black pepper, to taste
