    Recipe Introduction


    Posted by: Cubbybear

    List of Ingredients




    2 Tbl. olive oil
    1 medium onion, finely chopped
    1 small red or green bell pepper, finely chopped
    5 cloves garlic, pressed
    28 oz. can crushed tomatoes
    1/3 cup dry red wine
    1 Tbl. dried Italian herbs*
    1 1/2 tsp. crushed chile peppers
    1/4 tsp. fennel seeds, crushed
    2 bay leaves
    1/2 tsp. salt
    a few grinds black pepper
    2 tsp. brown sugar

    Recipe



    Heat oil in a dutch oven. Saute onions, peppers and garlic, stirring often, until soft. Add remaining ingredients and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer gently, uncovered, for 20 minutes, stirring often.

    Makes about 4 cups (enough for two 15" pizzas). I usually make one pizza and freeze the other half for next time.



    * I like McCormick's Italian Seasoning blend, but you can use any combination of dried herbs like marjoram, thyme, rosemary, savory, sage, oregano, basil, etc.
