add a comma between added and it.

remove the comma between teresa and toms.

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

When a dialogue tag like "she added" comes before a direct quote, a comma must separate the tag from the start of the quoted sentence. The original text lacks this comma between "added" and "It", which is a grammatical error. The other options are incorrect: the comma after "oven" is proper for separating a quoted phrase from its dialogue tag, the comma between "Teresa" and "Tom's" correctly sets off the appositive phrase identifying Teresa, and the text does need a change.

Answer:

Add a comma between added and It.
