I ended up simmering it for over 2 hours and it was pure perfection - the sausage was a completely different texture than I’ve ever had (and the reason for my previous dislike). My Italian husband is a happy man with leftovers all packed for his lunch tomorrow ... oops, how is it he only has 3 pieces left? 😂

Excellent recipe! As an Italian, instead of the one you've chosen, I personally use "luganega" which is a thin, long, northern Italian sausage. I open the casing on one side and "pinch out" small chunks of meat, resulting in some irregular and loosely-packed meatballs. After browning (and without removing the sausage from the pan) I add onion, chili pepper and deglaze with wine, to then add the tomato and cook it until ready.

I tried this technique/method and was *astounded* at how transformative it was to the jarred sauce I tend to use and the mild Italian sausage I used. The store I frequent has solid Italian sausage but nothing to write home about, but as this tender meatball texture it was wonderful. The technique was also very simple and frankly I only had to stir the sauce a few times as the water did a great job of thinning things out just enough during the process to not scorch the bottom of my pot. Thank you Chef John, I have tried several of your recipes and all of them have been wonderful. I just finally wanted to send another well-deserved thumbs up your way as one of your many fans!

This is close to my grandmother Laurcella's recipe, taught to me in 1964. Chef John is half west coast Italian like me. He gets it! There is Italian food, and then there is Italian American food. No matter where, a sausage cooked with this method is a thing of beauty.

I made this for myself and my family this evening. One of the best pasta dishes I’ve ever tasted and definitely the best one I’ve ever made myself. Thank you so much Chef John!

I am in love with Italian sausage spaghetti!!! Huge spaghetti lover here! 🤤 Thank you for this video, Chef John! 🍝

Wow. Your spirit of sacrifice and concern for others is a beautiful thing. Imagine...serving yourself five pieces of sausage, just in case one of your guests only wants three. What a guy. And what a chef. I seldom miss your videos. Thanks a million, Chef John!

This is how I make mine❣️❣️ I also use this to make sausages and peppers on a bun. Cook the peppers separately and add to the sauce and sausages on a big beautiful bun. Delicioso .😘😘

Hi Chef John! Thank you for this! Living in Upstate NY and it’s SO cold today and going to cook all day today!

Chef you have revealed my secret! Cooking the sausage in the sauce is the bomb! I’m 71 and Irish and simmering meat in a pot of liquid is one of our favorite cooking styles. Learned from my mother, and have made my sauce this way my whole adult life. Thanks for validating me to my Italian friends.

@Food Wishes Chef John, I made this tonight. I doubled up on the sausage & used fettuccini instead of spaghetti. It was fantastic, and the whole family raved about it. I've made quite a few of your recipes, and they've all been big hits in my household. So, from the bottom of my heart, thank you for all you do. You da man!

Hi Chef John, I've been making spaghetti sausage on a weekly basis, and I never have leftovers. Instead of Italian, I use British bangers and whole and crushed tomatoes (28 oz. each). I remove the skins and cut the sausages into fours, browning them and toss it all into a slowcooker for up to 4 or 5 hours.

Keep up the good work, Chef John. You've always been the man

Definitely going to try, thanks Chef.

One of my favorite dishes, I usually prefer to make it with hot (spicy) Italian sausage. But incidentally last night I cooked up a lovely batch of spaghetti sauce with homemade meatballs in the slow cooker. Yum!!

"Boil the pasta one minute less than the package says". You're speaking my language! 🤠

Oh, yum. Thank you, Chef John.

It's one of the biggest things I've missed since I moved from Ohio to Danmark in 06. I have been making my own sweet Italian sausage for years now, thank goodness Danmark's ground pork is absolutely delicious. I make it bulk, no casing, then fry it into large crumbles and add the sauce and simmer until it's reduced like your's is. So delicious. I also make chicken sweet Italian sausage, which I used to buy at an Italian deli/grocery store back home, also delicious! Now I have to get a pack of sausage out of the freezer and make this for dinner tomorrow, thanks John! lol I guess the thing I miss more than the sausage are all my Italian friends back home who taught me the tricks and tips of Italian cooking.

"I decided to give myself 5 pieces in case somebody else wanted 3."

Chef John, you are wonderful. Every video is so well done. Your voice is a smooth as your lovely food videos.

Brings back memories of (sweet) Italian sausage grinders when I lived in Philly many years ago. Sauce was a bit thicker and had green pepper in it.

The fourth method: Carefully remove the casing from the cold sausage. Cut the bare sausage in four pieces and fry. More sides to brown means more taste. Then remove the sausages while you deglace and boil up the tomato sauce. Then add back the still hot sausages. Stir carefully to keep the sausage pieces as intact as possible.

I COULDN'T WAIT to make this! Chef John, you never disappoint! I made a few adjustments for my taste and increased sauce by 1/2 recipe, used a prepack of 5 sausage links, and added 1 tablespoon of brown sugar!!! For the pasta, I used linguine. As I devoured, I reminded myself of my dog, who doesn't like to be bothered while she is eating :)))) Will make this for the rest of my life!
