Why pomodoro? Because it is quick and simple. Marinara sauce simmers for a good long time, and is a bit thinner, while pomodoro is thicker.
You can make it in just a few minutes using the strained, seedless tomatoes like Pomi or San Marzano brand. They make a thick, rich sauce and cook quickly. If you are going to use fresh tomatoes, it is best to puree them in the food processor first. Roma tomatoes are a great choice and widely available.
