- Here is my favorite pizza sauce, I use it for both thick and thin
- pizza. You can make it extra thick by adding more tomato
- paste. Also, I only use the really good tomato paste that
- you buy in a tube. The tube paste also saves much better,
- and I can definitely taste the difference.

- Pizza Sauce
-
-
- 28 oz. can crushed plum tomatoes
- 2 Tbsp. tomato paste
- 2 cloves garlic, crushed
- 1 small or 1/2 med. onion, chopped
- 1 Tbsp. fresh basil (or 1 tsp. dried)
- 1/4 tsp. each: salt, black pepper, sugar, dried oregano,
- red pepper flakes
-
- Mix together. Sometimes I saute the garlic and onions in a
- little olive oil first. It depends upon what else I'm
- putting on the pizza. I saute them if the toppings are
- more mild, and I don't if the toppings are more agressive.
- Basically, whatever you like.
-
- Just as an extra, my favorite topping combination is spinach,
- with red bell peppers, fresh mushrooms, and feta cheese. The
- contrast in color is also beautiful.
