What it is
Red sauce seasoning is a blend of herbs and spices used to flavor tomato-based sauces, particularly those used in Italian-American cuisine. Common ingredients include dried tomatoes, garlic, onion, basil, oregano, and sometimes chili pepper or paprika for color and a touch of heat.
Why it's used
Manufacturers use red sauce seasoning to impart a savory, herbaceous flavor to a variety of dishes. It is most frequently found in pasta sauces, pizza sauces, and marinades, but also appears in soups, stews, and seasoned meats.
Health notes
Red sauce seasoning is generally considered safe as it is made from common food ingredients. Regulatory bodies like the FDA do not typically evaluate spice blends as a whole. Individual spices have been studied for various health effects, but at the levels found in seasoning blends, significant health impacts are unlikely with typical consumption.
Allergen info
Not a major allergen. However, some blends may contain anti-caking agents or other additives that could be derived from major allergens, so checking the ingredient list is advised.
