Directions:

  1. In a large pot heat the butter and olive oil until foamy, add the mushrooms first and wait until they are sufficiently brown before adding the onions and minced garlic.
  2. Sautee the mushrooms and onions until the onions are clear, salt and pepper. If you're using dried basil and parsley throw a couple pinches of each in at this step.
  3. After the herbs are incorporated add the diced fresh tomatoes to the pot. Salt and pepper again.
  4. When the tomatoes start to swaet profusly, add the canned diced tomatoes to the pot alot with the tomatoe paste, white wine, bay leaves, and the fresh basil. Add more dried basil, parsley and oregano.
  5. Let the sauce simmer for an hour to an hour and a half, stirring occasionally.
  6. If you'd like toward the end of the simmer, you can add a tablespoon or so of capers for an added zing.
