Half a teaspoon of freshly ground black pepper

Step-by-Step Directions for Preparing Di Fara Pizza Sauce

Have you gathered all the ingredients? Great! Now let us get down to the business and make some great Di Fara pizza sauce!

Step 1: Preparing The Tomato Puree

Take out the tomatoes and wash them thoroughly. Remove any leaves. Then boil a pot of water. Carefully immerse the tomatoes in the boiling water. Boil for about 5 minutes so that the tomatoes are half boiled.

Strain the water and the tomatoes to cool down. Peel of the outer layer and gently crush it with a big steel spatula. Crush them in such a way that you can find small solid chunks in the puree. That’s the specialty of Di Fara pizza sauce. As you would bite into the pizza, you would also bite into small chunks of tanginess.

Step 2: Cooking The Garlic

Take a nonstick fry pan. Add oil to it. Turn up the flame to high heat. Heat the oil. Then, add the square-shaped minced garlic cloves to the oil. Now, reduce the flame to medium heat now.

Add the salt and the pepper. Keep stirring the garlic cloves for 2 to 3 minutes until you can smell the aroma of garlic. The garlic should turn a honey brown color. That’s when you remove it from the heat.

It may seem that the garlic is not properly fried. But, you cannot remove the garlic from the oil. So, it would get cooked to perfection as it cools in the oil.

The garlic might get over-fried if you heat it to a light brown color while putting the heat on. So better not to do that.

Step 3: Mix In Everything

In the bowl of tomato puree, immerse the hot olive oil with garlic. This should be done right away after removing the oil from the stove. Give the whole thing a good stir so that all the garlic and the oil are well mixed with the puree.

Then lastly, spread the fresh oregano over the tomato puree. Again give the whole thing a good stir. And your Di Fara pizza sauce is ready!

Some Additional Helpful Tips about Making Di Fara Pizza Sauce

The recipe is very quick and easy. So, if you follow it thoroughly, you’d be able to get the best results. However, here are some frequently asked questions. These might help you to clear any of your confusion.

Can I Cook the Tomato Puree along with the Garlic?

For regular pizza sauces, the tomato puree is cooked. But this is the specialty of Di Fara pizza sauce. For this pizza sauce, the puree is not cooked. The hot olive oil blends perfectly with the chunky and yet spreadable tomato puree to give a unique taste.

Can I Add Dried Oregano Instead of Fresh Ones?

The fresh oregano adds to the freshness of the uncooked tomato puree. Thus, it perfectly complements the recipe to give a unique taste. You can add dried oregano instead of fresh ones. You would get a good outcome. But you would not get results as good as it would give with the fresh ones.

Isn’t the recipe so simple? But this can give you the best pizza sauce you can get! So, best of luck. Let us know how it goes for you.
