The Sauce

Pizza-lovers we are but Italian we are not and there's not a fat lot we can do about that. The problem posed by this misfortune of birth is the sauce. It is common knowledge that all self-respecting pizza chefs need a good family sauce recipe that has been passed down the generations, preferably cloaked in secrecy with a special ingredient that only mama knows. So, this is where our dear friend 'Hodgie The Sauce' (this really is his name, honestly, cross our non-Italian hearts) comes in. He's not Italian either but his great granny, Nonna Constantine (92), is Italian through and through and he, sympathetic to our sauce problem and with Constantine's consent, let us in on her saucy secrets. So, now we top our pizzas with a genuinely mysterious secret sauce from a real Italian Mama! This makes them all the more fabulous and we will be forever and ever indebted to Hodgie The Sauce and his great granny, Nonna Constantine.  Grazie! Viva L'Italia! Viva Pizza! 

We'll post a photograph of Nonna Constantine shortly but here's one of the main man.........

Cheers Hodgie
