No-fuss Italian pizza sauce recipe using San Marzano DPO tomatoes -- imported from Naples, Italy. Fast, easy and works great in a wood-fired oven. The real Vera Pizza Napoletana method.

  • It's a good story. The San Marzano tomato is a premium canned tomato from Italy -- just south of Naples in the shadow of Mt. Vesuvius. They are a tightly regulated product, much like Champagne or Chianti. Each can has a stamp to show its authenticity.

    You can get real San Mazanos from the Forno Bravo Store (online), or check your local high-end market. Beware of copies. They aren't the same.

  • The tomatoes are incredible. Each one is this perfect little tomato. You should not cook the sauce if you are using a wood-fired oven, because the temperatures are hot enough to cook the sauce and cheese all at the same time.

    I would give it a try using a pizza stone and see how it does in your oven.

  • This is probably the first time I have ever heard someone refer to canned food as being fresh.

  • Hi everybody.

    I am Italian and I completely agree with the man in the video.

    San Marzano tomato is the best and the most important ingredient for a real Italian pizza.

    But you can enjoy the San Marzano taste in a "pasta sauce" or, with fishes, cooked in the South-Italian way.

    Remember guys: good pizza = first quality flour, San Marzano tomato, Italian cheese "Mozzarella", real and original Italian olive oil "Extravergine" and the original Italian Pizza is cooked in a firewood furnace.
