Pomodoro Sauce and the low FODMAP diet
Pomodoro sauce simmers tomatoes, garlic, basil, and oil to create a simple and fresh pasta base. Tomatoes and oil contain negligible fermentable carbohydrates and remain highly compatible with sensitive digestion. Traditional recipes rely heavily on fresh garlic, which introduces significant fructan load during simmering. Commercial preparations frequently add onion powder, sugar, or wheat thickeners to extend shelf life. Using small portions and verifying simple ingredients ensures safer consumption.

FODMAP group
Group information helps organize reintroduction challenges and possible stacking.
What can change the result?
Simmer tomato puree with olive oil, fresh basil, and garlic-infused oil to eliminate fresh allium triggers while maintaining traditional taste. Avoid commercial jars that list onion powder or high-fructose corn syrup near the top of the ingredient panel to maintain purity. Heat gently and stir frequently to prevent scorching and preserve bright red color and fresh flavor.
