I love a man that can cook lol. My husband can't find his butt with both hands in the kitchen but then again he's used to me doing all the cooking bc I love it. That's the thing about cooking if you love it you get good at it, if its a chore and you try to hurry it up, it won't turn out right. Patience is everything. I'm sure this sauce is worth the wait. :o)
This sauce was surely nice, we had similar spices and yeah..the secret ingridient, brown sugar...it gives a nice balance to the taste of the sauce and all the spices..Love it!
Here's what I do. 6 oz tomato paste, 1 cup water, 1/4 cup olive oil, 1 tsp kosher salt, 1 clove minced garlic,1 Tblsp dry oregano, 1 Tblsp dry basil, 1/8 tsp red pepper flakes. Don't guess, MEASURE them. Whisk it together in a bowl and put it in the fridge all day. That's it! No need to cook it. Everything just needs time to mingle. Makes enough for 3 medium pizza's at a cost of about 20 cents each. And that's at grocery store regular prices.
i do it differently. garlic, onion, green pepper, oregano, tomatoes, paprika, 1small tsp of sugar, basil, and olive oil. not to much olive oil, chop garlic , onion , natural green pepper then when the onion, garlic and pepper is done put the tomatoes, oregano bazil , paprika salt , 1small tsp of sugar to make the souce less strong then cook until is done
Tip: if you have your olive oil on really low heat and throw in your minced garlic, let it toast very slowly.. this way the garlic flavour spreads into the olive oil. The hotter the oil is the quicker the garlic cooks on the outside and it doesn't sweat that much.
If you are looking for the ultimate sauce, try using fresh herbs instead of the dry ones....!
In my garden I have fresh oregano, 3 different thymes, rosemary, chives, basil, koriander, laurel, mint and soon: tomatoes. Make a sauce with fresh ingredients and it will taste even better. Avoid dries herbs as much as possible.
NEVER use dried basil. Fresh basil tastes SO MUCH better, more powerful.
Tip: add a few laurel leaves to your sauce. The smell alone is heaven.
@nikkomyers I agree, I discovered that when I ran out of granulated sugar making spaghetti sauce so instead I used a little brown sugar. Brown sugar is all I use now.
@mrcegodepenas My is tuttorosso! It is not available everywhere unfortunately. You are most likely to be able to find it in the north east of the USA. I moved to Canada a while back and have been on a long search for tomatoes that come close to the flavor and have been unsuccessful. Great tomatoes are a rare commodity. Fresh well nourished vine ripened tomatoes make fantastic sauce too but if you want canned the best is tuttorosso! and simmer at least 3 hours! and overnight rest helps too.
@nikkomyers it's a matter of personal taste with frying or not frying the garlic. If you fry the garlic it brings out a sweeter and more mellow flavor and infuses the oil with garlic aroma and arguably distributes more evenly throughout the sauce. where adding raw garlic at the end should be a more spicy and pungent garlic bite (if the garlic remains raw). It depends on your preference on the way you like your garlic.
@nikkomyers I have never (yet) successfully sauteed garlic (without scorching it which makes it useless) but you give me a lot of hope! I am going to try some tonight and I think following your example I will have zero issues. Thank you so much!!
@ririshow Shallots would be a nice addition - I'll try that next time... Sometimes fresh spices are hard to come by here in the dead of winter but I will agree they would make it better...
You could always just use fresh ones - just skin them and take out the seeds. Just cook them down with some water or stock and run them through a strainer or blitz them smooth...
That looks pretty good there! I'm looking for a tangy flavor pizza sauce is this any close to it?....I'm gona try this tonight.... I havn't yet found any good recipes for pizza sauce on YOUTUBE just yet! I'm tryng yours tonight! Thanks. Much Amore' Mimi.
Funny when you said baizil and orEgaNO...hehe. But seeing as you are American then I forgive you. I just find their muddling of the English language rather funny and soemetimes really irratiating.
No hard feelings at all so please don't post lots of stupid hate in response.
to thegreatbasher- funny how u talk shit about how americans speak, but u cant even spell right. read ya post again u illiterate fuck ! also, u and ya boys that are so worried about usa and talkin about who our next president should be.... you need a history lesson. the ooo soo irritating USA u speak of, saved ya counties pussy asses in ww2. chump ! if it wasnt for us you wouldn't even be speakin that shit you call english !
Okay, I get that some people say "BAHzil" instead of "BAYzil", but how the heck else are you supposed to pronounce oregano besides "orEgaNO"? All I can think of is Marge Simpson saying, "OreGAHno? What the heck is that?"*
I like experimenting with making pizza. I once used a can of creme of mushroom soup as the sauce for a pizza. I then sauteed onions,bell pepper,mushrooms, and NY strip sirloin steak thinly sliced for the topping. Added the mozzarella then baked it. Wow. It was amazing.
You should put the Recipe in the Description.
