Care to share the recipe for the Brooklyn Sunday Sauce? Is this a pasta sauce or pizza or both?
You bet. This is a sauce for pasta only, way too heavy for pizza, but oh man it's good.
1 pound ground beef
1 pound Italian sausage, sweet, hot or both, cut into 2 inch pieces.
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 large onion, chopped
6 cloves garlic, crushed
2 28 oz cans crushed tomatoes
1 28 oz can tomato puree
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 tablespoon dried oregano
1 tablespoon dried basil
1 tsp crushed red pepper
1 teaspoon pepper
1 cup dry red wine
Brown ground beef and sausage in 1 tablespoon olive oil, drain and set aside. In a large
saucepot, saute onion and garlic in remaining oil. Add tomatoes, sugar, salt, oregano, basil, crushed red pepper, wine and browned meat.
Simmer on low-medium heat one hour, covered. Then one hour uncovered, stirring occasionally.
Adjust for salt near the end of cooking, as there's a lot of concentration going on here, and if it tastes right early on it will be too salty later.
