KITTENCAL'S PIZZA SAUCE
This is a full-flavored rich pizza sauce that I have been making for over 20 years, the longer you simmer this sauce the thicker and richer it will be --- this sauce freezes very well and even tastes better if made a day ahead and left in the fridge overnight to blend flavors --- also see my recipe#232188

Steps:
- In a saucepan, heat the olive oil; saute the onions, Italian seasoning and oregano for about 2-3 minutes, stirring until soft but not brown.
- Add in garlic and saute for 2 minutes, stirring constantly.
- Add in the tomato paste; stir and cook 1 minute.
- Add in the remaining ingredients; cook and simmer on low heat for 1/2 to 3/4 hours, stirring occasionally, adding more salt if needed (the longer you cook this sauce the thicker and richer it will be!).
- Cool slightly and use immediately or refrigerate up to 5 days or you may freeze.
- *NOTE* freeze in plastic containers after cooled, I find that this sauce tastes even better if left in the fridge overnight to blend the flavors before using or freezing.
- Delicious!
KITTENCAL'S PIZZA DOUGH
This recipe is written to be prepared on a heavy-duty stand mixer although it may also be made by hand successfully. This is one of my favorite pizza dough recipes it produces a tender crust with lots of flavor. I have tryed many over the years, but this recipe is the one that comes close to a pizza restaurant-style crust, well for me anyway! The Italian seasoning and Parmesan cheese are only optional I like to add in both for flavor, the prepared dough may be covered and refrigerated for 24 hours *after* punching down or may be frozen to be used later --- see my recipe#65641 *or* recipe#232188

Steps:
- Proof the yeast with 1 cup warm water and 2 teaspoons sugar for 10 minutes until foamy.
- Meanwhile in the stainless steel mixing bowl, add in all-purpose and bread flour flour 2-3 tablespoons olive oil, salt, grated Parmesan cheese and Italian seasoning (if using).
- When the yeast is proofed add to the mixing bowl along with 1/2 cup warm water.
- With kneader blade attached to the stand mixer, begin mixing ingredients for about 1 minute, adding in more all purpose flour as needed (1 tablespoon at a time).
- Continue to knead dough (for about 8-10 minutes) to create a smooth, semi-stcky dough that holds around the kneader blade (adding in more all-purpose flour as needed, but don't add in too much flour!).
- Stop machine, cover bowl with a clean tea towel, and let rest for 10 minutes, (this is important!).
- Remove dough to a lightly-floured surface, and knead gently for about 20 seconds, the dough will come together nicely.
- Place the dough into a well-oiled bowl (I just use the same bowl).
- Cover with plastic wrap or a clean tea towel in a warm place for 60 minutes until dough has doubled in size.
- At this point, you can cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap and rise the dough overnight in the fridge.
- Punch down and remove from bowl, separate the dough in half for two smaller pizzas or leave in one piece for an extra large pizza.
- Cover the dough and let rest for 5-8 minutes (this will allow for easier shaping).
- Roll the dough out with a rolling pin on a floured surface into a circle, and place on a pizza pan coated with non-stick spray.
- Trim the dough that is hanging around the edges (I use a pizza cutter for this).
- Spread with pizza sauce and then shredded cheese, then top with favorite toppings.
- Bake as desired.

KITTENCAL'S DELICIOUS MEATY PASTA SAUCE
I don't think you will find a better meat sauce than this one! a good tomato sauce needs time to "ripen" so I strongly suggest to make this sauce a few day ahead and refrigerate just warm in a saucepan before using you will see that the flavors strongly intensify after refrigeration time --if you want a creamy sauce just add in 1/4 cup or more of heavy whipping cream the last 30 minutes of cooking time, this may be doubled if desired but keep the ground beef amount at one pound, this also freezes well... you will *love* this!

Tips:
- Use canned tomatoes: Using canned tomatoes is a great way to save time and effort. Just make sure to choose a good quality brand that uses whole tomatoes and not tomato paste or diced tomatoes.
- Roast your vegetables: Roasting your vegetables before adding them to the sauce will give them a deeper flavor. This is especially true for onions, garlic, and peppers.
- Add a little sugar: A little bit of sugar can help to balance out the acidity of the tomatoes and create a more well-rounded flavor. Just be careful not to add too much, or the sauce will become too sweet.
- Let the sauce simmer: Simmering the sauce for at least 30 minutes will help to develop the flavors and make the sauce thicker. The longer you simmer the sauce, the better it will taste.
- Taste the sauce as you go: It is important to taste the sauce as you go and adjust the seasonings as needed. You may need to add more salt, pepper, or sugar to get the perfect flavor.
