For a smoother sauce, use an immersion blender to blend the sauce after simmering. Adjust the amount of red pepper flakes to your preference for heat. Fresh basil can be substituted for dried basil; use 1 tablespoon of chopped fresh basil. For a deeper flavor, roast the garlic cloves before chopping and adding to the sauce.
