a tasty topping for homemade pizzas.

Makes 3 cups tomato sauce for pasta / 1¾ cups tomato sauce for pizza

1small onion (4 ounces), cut into 1-inch pieces

4garlic cloves

¾teaspoon dried oregano

1teaspoon extra virgin olive oil

1can (28 ounces) plum tomatoes, with juices

2sprigs fresh basil (10-12 large leaves)

3tablespoons dry white wine or vermouth

½teaspoon kosher salt

¼teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

¼to ¾ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (optional, to taste, for a spicier sauce)

Insert the metal blade. Pulse to chop the onion and garlic with the oregano, about 10 times. Heat the oil over medium heat in a 2¾-quart saucepan; add the onion, garlic, and oregano. Cook, stirring for 2 to 3 minutes, until the onions begin to soften and the oregano becomes fragrant. Add the canned tomatoes with their juices, basil sprigs, wine and salt. Bring to the boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover loosely and simmer for 50 to 60 minutes. Turn off the heat and let cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Stir in the black pepper and red pepper flakes if using.

Using the metal blade, pulse the sauce 15 times for a rustic, chunky sauce, or process for 2 minutes for a smooth sauce. The sauce is now ready to use for pasta. If you want a sauce for pizza, return the sauce to the pan. Simmer, uncovered, for 40 to 50 minutes to reduce, stirring now and then. Transfer the reduced sauce to a bowl to cool before using as a pizza topping. The sauce freezes well.
