Pasta Sauce Power Rankings. The general rules are:
I got jarred sauce (no cans), bought standard marinara or the closest approximation I could find (no vodka sauces, no puttanesca, etc.) and tried to include no more than one jar per brand. There are a lot of sauces here and, just as when looking at a list of Chumbawamba members, it can become overwhelming and difficult to tell them apart. You won’t really go wrong with, say, the top dozen or so sauces on this list.

“The Silver Palate Cookbook” changed the way we cook. Published in early ’80s, it took off and gave home cooks from coast to coast a good shot of culinary courage. The dishes were doable and the results impressive. Almost overnight, home cooking became more vibrant. Pesto, gazpacho, and chicken with fresh berries became commonplace. The Chicken Marbella became a dinner party staple.
Authors Julee Rosso and Sheila Lukins wrote in the introduction to their book that they wanted to “take the mystery out of good food and allow people to have an honest appreciation for it.” The catalyst for the book grew out of their culinary experiences owning and operating The Silver Palate, a gem of a food store on Manhattan’s Upper West Side.
