For an even richer flavor, consider adding a drizzle of olive oil to the sauce during the simmering process. If you're adding meatballs, brown them lightly before adding them to the sauce to simmer. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. A pinch of red pepper flakes can add a subtle kick. The bay leaf imparts a subtle, aromatic flavor. Don't forget to remove it before serving!
