Tomato sauce
Description
Perfectly complements meat, poultry, and side dishes. Since the sauce contains butter, it cannot be stored for long. The maximum storage time is two days in the refrigerator. But the sauce is so delicious that you'll want to eat it with almost any dish, so it definitely won't last long in the fridge :) Serve chilled or at room temperature.
