Add a little water to the sauce.
If you find your sauce too thick, you can add a little pasta cooking water to it.
For a note of sweetness
To add a note of sweetness and smoothness, you can add a little cream in your tomato sauce.
Removing acidity
If your sauce is a bit acidic do not hesitate to add a little sugar to it.
The sauce has dried on the surface!
When preparing a sauce in advance, it tends to dry quickly on the top.
To avoid this, pass on the surface of your sauce (when it is still very hot) a piece of very cold butter, with a fork.
The butter spread will form a protective layer that will preserve your sauce from drying on the top!
The sauce is too salty.
If your sauce is too salty, add a potato to it.
