Chunky Pizza Sauce Recipes

CHUNKY TOMATO SAUCE FOR BASIC PIZZA

Steps:

• In medium saucepan, heat oil over medium. Cook onion and garlic until translucent, stirring, 3 minutes.
• Add whole, peeled tomatoes (lightly crushed with hands), crushed tomatoes, oregano, and a pinch of sugar (optional).
• Simmer, stirring until thickened, 10 to 20 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Freeze any leftover sauce for up to 3 months.

KEZZA'S CHUNKY PIZZA SAUCE

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a medium saucepan, on medium heat.
• Saute the onions and garlic until translucent, but do not allow to burn or brown.
• Add the herbs and saute for 1 minute.
• Add the tomatoes and tomato paste (and salt & pepper to taste) and simmer for 60 minutes on low heat (I use 2/6) until reduced to a thick sauce. I taste this every 10 minutes and sometimes add pepper if required.
• Cool, and use on your favourite pizza bases. Can be used on 4 x medium bases (if you like a lot of sauce), or 6 bases if you like a thinner covering. You can also puree this with a Bamix if chunky sauce isn't your thing (plus, it goes further if you puree it).

Steps:

• Heat oil in a dutch oven.

• Add remaining ingredients and bring to a boil.
• Reduce heat and simmer gently, uncovered, for 20 minutes, stirring often.
• Makes about 4 cups (enough for two 15" pizzas).
• I usually make one pizza and freeze the other half for next time.

CHUNKY PIZZA DIP

Steps:
