"But, when you're short on it, grabbing your favorite store-bought pasta sauce brand is a great way to streamline the process and get your spaghetti on the table even faster. Plus, there are plenty of ways to dress up a jar to make it taste homemade - including adding protein, fresh herbs, and more. If you really want to give it a kick of flavor, however, all you need is a little shake of crushed red pepper flakes."
"The simple ingredient that gives arrabbiata sauce its iconic spice is the same that will provide a mouthwatering upgrade to your store-bought spaghetti sauce. Stored correctly in a dark, dry place, crushed red pepper flakes have a shelf life of roughly three years. If you have a container of Amazon Saver Crushed Red Pepper or your preferred brand on hand, feel free to add it to your spaghetti sauce at any time, making sure to go slowly and taste as you go."
Crushed red pepper flakes add the arrabbiata-style heat that enhances store-bought spaghetti sauce quickly and easily. Stored in a dark, dry place, crushed red pepper flakes last roughly three years. Add flakes to a jar poured into a pot while warming to let the spice infuse, or sprinkle extra over plated pasta as a finishing touch. Start with a small pinch and taste as you go to avoid over-spicing. Temper excess heat by diluting the sauce with water or broth or by adding dairy such as freshly grated cheese or heavy cream. Proteins and fresh herbs further improve jarred sauce.
