Pizza Sauce
Makes about 3 C
Ingredients:
4 lbs. tomatoes
5 large garlic cloves
10 large basil leaves
1/2 t red pepper flakes
1/8 medium onion, cut in fourths
1/2 T balsamic vinegar
1/2 t garlic powder
salt to taste (I use 1/2 t)
pepper to taste (I use 6 grinds)
Directions:
1. Cut tomatoes in large chunks and remove tough stem part.
2. Place 1/3 tomatoes in food processor fitted with standard blade, and process until smooth. Pour into stock pot and repeat with next 1/3 tomatoes.
3. Add the last 1/3 tomatoes, garlic, basil, red pepper flakes, onion, balsamic, garlic powder, salt, and pepper to processor and process until smooth. Add to pot.
4. Cover and heat on med-high until simmering. Remove cover, turn down to medium and simmer for 35-45 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Notes:
* In the Summer, I use tomatoes from my garden. When I don’t have garden-fresh tomatoes, I usually buy romas or vine-ripe for this sauce.
* This will make enough sauce for about 6 12" pizzas. Freeze leftover sauce to use later.
