destination - 12 great pizzas!

RRP
RRP Posts: 25,880
Today I assembled this pot which will result in 11 or 12 packages of our favorite pizza sauce. I like to let it rest in the refrigerator over night before cooking it. The original recipe was one I took off the old forum 20 years ago and have tweaked it to our tastes over the years. It freezes well and tastes great! I'll repeat this process in another week for 11 or 12 more!

    Ron,

        Love the idea but why oh why didn't you post this a month ago when I had Romas coming out of my a**?  Now my plants are petering out.  Only had two plants but probably got well over 100 Romas between them.  Anyway awesome idea and I'll save this for next year!

    Sorry! Home grown would have been really special! I just cross my fingers that what I bought locally were actually grown locally and not trucked in green from a couple thousand miles South of here! BTW where ARE you located as tomatoes are just now plentiful?

    I'm in Maryland.  We had a warm spell so I planted last week of April. Only had to cover plants two nights.  I was overrun with Romas Mid June to early August. Still getting a few but much slower now. This photo was July 18th.

    From the whateverit'sworth dept...the above posts by @stv8r got me to thinking since home grown Romas are different sizes. For this batch I just made then the "18 Romas" in my recipe weighted 4.4 pounds. The finished yield was 11 packages with 3/4th cup of sauce suitable for a 14" pizza and 1 2/3rd cup perfect for a 12" pizza. HTH.

    @rrp what side of the freeze tite paper do you put down onto the dough when rolling it out?

    LOL - I didn't realize there was a difference, but I pull out a piece and place it on top the dough so I guess you might say the underside. BTW I do clamp the parchment paper and Freeze Tite to my bread board and then lift up the Freeze Tite and place the dough on the parchment paper and then press down and clamp the other side. Then start with the rolling pin.

    Got it.  My freezer paper seems to have one side with a more waxy texture.

    Sorry, but that Freezer-Tite is an “industrial strength” clear wrap which runs circles around that crappy Saran Wrap product. Freezer-Tite is not freezer wrap paper. Sorry if I misled you.

    @RRP I bought a box of the freezer-tite on amzn and it worked perfect for rolling out thin pizza crust. Thanks for the suggestion.

    So Ron I would like to make this using some local farm Roma's but I'm confused about your reference to layers? Are you dividing the ingredients in thirds and layering or is the recipe for one layer X 3?

    Sorry, but like I said...
     so there are three identical layers.
