Isn't Neapolitan Sauce a tomato sauce without ham?
Where do you guys get your recipes?
-pizza napoli: tomato, mozzarella, olives, anchovies, capers.
-pasta napoli: BASIC TOMATO SAUCE!!! You can add onions and/or garlic, but no herbs....
Merging
[edit](separate) SmackBot put an "Mergeto" tag on Naporitan article and directed discussion to here. I think the Neapolitan sauce and Japanese Naporitan are completely different. Japanese Naporitan was "made in Japan" food and it is a fried spaghetti with Ketchup originally. The cooking style is very different from common Tomato based pastas in western countries. And the spelling is completely different. If merged, it would mislead western people who don't really know what Japanese Naporitan is (it is not stirred pasta with sauce). Will you merge it with Ketchup article? That is weird, too. I think this Neapolitan sauce article should be left singularly as other Sauce articles, such as Arrabbiata sauce, Matriciana sauce, Puttanesca sauce, Tomato sauce, etc. -211.129.159.33 (talk) 09:39, 22 March 2008 (UTC)
Definition
[edit]Neapolitan sauce is the collective name given (outside Italy, particularly in the U.S.) to various basic tomato-based sauces derived from Italian cuisine, often served over pasta and then sprinkled with grated Parmesan cheese.
How is "Neapolitan sauce" distinct from the more generic "tomato sauce" or "spaghetti sauce"? It seems like just about any kind of spaghetti sauce could be referred to as "Neapolitan sauce from this definition. If it's just a "catch all" term for generic tomato sauce, does it really need its own article? CES (talk) 18:51, 7 May 2008 (UTC)
- It is a different consistency to ketchup and is used differently. 180.150.113.72 (talk) 21:40, 13 April 2013 (UTC)
