Pizza sauce made the right way, with time and wine! Sauce can be packaged and frozen in servings, and used as a dipping sauce.
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- ½ cup chopped onion (large chunks)
- 5 cloves garlic, halved
- salt and ground black pepper to taste
- 1 (28 ounce) can tomato puree
- 1 ½ cups red wine
- 1/8 cup chopped fresh basil
- 1/8 cup chopped fresh oregano
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 tablespoon white sugar
Directions
Step 1
Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat; stir in onion and garlic. Season with salt and pepper. Cook and stir until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes.
Step 2
Add tomato puree, red wine, basil, and oregano. Increase heat a touch and bring to a simmer. Cook until sauce reaches desired consistency, 1 1/2 to 2 hours. Stir in butter and sugar; simmer for 10 more minutes. Remove from heat, allow to cool, and refrigerate 8 hours to overnight.
Step 3
For a smooth sauce, remove onion and garlic pieces before spreading sauce on pizza crust. For a chunky sauce, use as is.
