1 can (28 oz) whole peeled tomatoes, with juices
½ tsp granulated sugar
½ tsp fine salt, plus more to taste
¼ tsp black pepper
½ cup heavy cream
¼ cup fresh basil leaves, loosely packed

For the herb oil

¼ cup extra-virgin olive oil
¼ cup fresh basil leaves, loosely packed
1 tbsp fresh flat-leaf parsley, roughly chopped
1 pinch red pepper flakes (optional)

Instructions

1
Heat the garlic-infused olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat until shimmering. Add the scallion greens and cook, stirring, until softened and bright green, about 2 minutes.
2
Add the whole peeled tomatoes with their juices, crushing each tomato by hand as it goes in. Stir in the sugar, salt, and black pepper. Bring to a gentle simmer and cook uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the sauce has reduced slightly and the tomatoes are completely broken down, about 18–20 minutes.
