"This Provencal tomato sauce recipe is a basic of the local cuisine, but it tastes anything but basic. Fresh tomatoes lend the sauce a bright flavor, and the addition of ham and bacon give it an incredible, smoky savory quality. Use this special tomato sauce to accent pasta, beef, and eggplant dishes...."
