@theloveofpizza: Pizza should be simple. Just top-notch ingredients👌 My New York-style pizza sauce starts with quality tomatoes, kosher salt, a touch of extra virgin olive oil, and fresh basil. I season in layers—a light sprinkle of Pecorino Romano over the sauce before the bake, then finish the pizza with fresh basil once the pizza comes out of the oven. A few things I personally don’t believe in: • Mixing every ingredient together from the start. • Using dried basil as the primary seasoning. Fresh basil always delivers a cleaner, brighter flavor. • Adding sugar to every sauce. Sugar is only useful if you’re trying to balance an overly acidic tomato. If you’re starting with a naturally sweet, high-quality tomato, there’s usually no need for it. Keep it simple. Let great ingredients do the work. That’s what New York-style pizza is all about. 🍕 #pizza #sauce #homemade
