    Millie Bonazzo's Pizza Sauce


    Source of Recipe


    Buddy Cookbook

    List of Ingredients




    2 cans (35 oz each) whole peeled tomatoes (drain off all liquid)
    2 cans (8 oz each) tomato paste
    1 onion chopped
    5 cloves garlic minced
    2 Tbsp. olive oil
    2/3 cup red wine
    3 to 4 Tbsp. Italian seasoning (I prefer to add basil, thyme, rosemary, oregano, etc. separately, but this is a good simple mixture)
    2 dried chili peppers crushed
    1/2 tsp. fresh ground black pepper
    salt to taste

    Recipe



    Saute onions and garlic in oil over medium heat till onions are transparent.

    Add wine and let it reduce a bit. Add everything else and simmer uncovered. Minimum simmering time is 1 hour but I like to let it go for as many as 8.

    This should make about 1/2 gallon of sauce, but it will keep for some time (about 2 weeks in the refrigerator or may be frozen - ed.) and gets better and better with age.

    Play around with the seasonings, the thing to remember is that a good pizza sauce by itself is quite spicy because it will be subdued by the other ingredients later.
