Sauces made with vegetable stock can be made more lively by the addition of strong flavorings such as chili, garlic, ginger, plenty of fresh herbs or a splash of wine, and thickened if you wish with pureed vegetables. The versatile vegan tomato sauce is one of the most popular sauces. It is full of flavor, easy to make and delicious whether hot or cold. Serve it with rice, polenta or any grain dish, or with stuffed, grilled, or boiled vegetables.
