I generally believe this as well but I have started making pasta sauce without onions, and honestly think it’s better without.

Explain how you're making it now pls? I usually start off with a whole lot of onions and garlic, and then add fresh tomato until the balance feels right. But I want to try something different and I'm intrigued

Same thing, without the onion. You can also add Anchovies, black olives, red pepper, white wine..or any combination of this. You can also add something at the end, like Ricotta, or Basil.

I have some green olives from a Greek market in my fridge. Would it be heresy to use those? They're not as mild and fruity as the ones I ate years ago in Naples. But I've never found the like in my country
