Several folk theories exist as to the origin of this sauce. One version states that cooks aboard [[Naples|Neapolitan]] ships returning from the Americas invented marinara sauce in the mid-16th century after Spaniards introduced the tomato to Europe. Another theory states this was a sauce prepared by the wives of Neapolitan sailors upon their return from the sea.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.italianchef.com/marinara.html |title=Info on the origin of marinara sauce on the Italian Chef website |publisher=Italianchef.com |date=2013-04-24 |access-date=2013-05-03 |archive-date=28 February 2012 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120228185036/http://www.italianchef.com/marinara.html |url-status=dead }}</ref> |

Marinara (lit. 'sailor') sauce is a tomato sauce usually made with tomatoes, garlic, herbs, and onions.[1][2] Variations include capers, olives, spices, and a dash of wine.[3][4] Widely used in Italian-American cuisine,[5] it is known as alla marinarainItaly, where it is typically made with tomatoes, basil, olive oil, garlic and oregano, but also sometimes olives, capers, and salted anchovies. It is used for spaghetti and vermicelli, but also with meat or fish.[6]
The terms should not be confused with spaghetti marinara, a popular dish in Australia, New Zealand, Spain, and South Africa, in which a tomato-based sauce is mixed with fresh seafood.[7] In Italy, a pasta sauce including seafood is more commonly called alla pescatora.[6]

Historically, however, the first Italian cookbook to include tomato sauce,[9] Lo Scalco alla Moderna ('The Modern Steward'), was written by Italian chef Antonio Latini and was published in two volumes in 1692 and 1694. Latini served as the Steward of the First Minister to the Spanish Viceroy of Naples.[9][10][11] This early tomato sauce was more like a modern tomato salsa.
A sauce similar to Italian-American marinara sauce is known in some areas of Central Italyassugo finto,[12] literally "fake (meatless) sauce".
