Authentic Homemade Pizza Sauce Recipe
Ingredients:
- 1 medium onion, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 500 grams can whole/chopped Italian plum tomatoes
- 2 teaspoons concentrated tomato puree
- 1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
- 3 teaspoons sugar
Directions:
In a large saucepan, gently sauté the onion in the oil until transparent. Add the tomatoes and bring to a boil. Once simmering, add the tomato puree, the vinegar, and sugar. Simmer for a full hour using a wooden spoon to break up any tomato pieces. If the sauce still has pieces of tomato, pass through a sieve before bottling and storing in the refrigerator for up to two weeks. Spread thinly on pizza, use over pasta with a grated, strong, hard cheese, or use as a base for more complex meat sauces for pasta.
