Instructions
- Heat the olive oil (1 tablespoon) in a medium saucepan on medium heat and sauté the minced garlic (2 cloves) and Italian seasoning (1 teaspoon) for one minute or until fragrant, stirring consistently so the garlic doesn't burn.
- Add red wine (1/4 cup) and simmer for another minute, stirring frequently, or until wine has reduced by about half.
- Add remaining ingredients, stir, cover, and simmer on low for about 5 minutes or until heated through. Season with kosher salt and black pepper to taste and add the honey or sugar, if using. Taste and adjust seasonings if necessary.
Notes
- If you don't have Italian seasoning, you can use dried oregano, thyme, and/or basil. You can also use fresh herbs if you prefer- if you do this, use 1 tablespoon instead of 1 teaspoon.
- Storage: I like to store this sauce in 8 oz. mason jars in my freezer, which is the perfect amount for a large pizza. Although I've never tried it, you can also can this sauce and store it in your pantry.
- Wine alternative: if you prefer to not use wine, just skip that step and move right on to adding the other ingredients.
