PEPPERONI PIZZA PASTA
I have MTV's "Teen Mom" to thank for introducing me to the idea of pizza-inspired pasta. As simple as the concept may seem, why had this culinary creation never crossed my mind? My version here is a spin on baked rigatoni, and it's loaded with all of my favorite pizza toppings, including pepperoni, green bell peppers and Italian sausage, so this is not for the faint of heart (or meat). But the real beauty here is that exactly like a pizza, this pasta can be customized to your preferences with any pizza topping imaginable. If you'd put it on a pizza, you can put it in pizza pasta!

MAGIC FRESH TOMATO SPAGHETTI, PASTA OR PIZZA SAUCE
Check out this trick - a whole, unpeeled tomato goes in the pot, and a tasty, seed-free, peel-free tomato sauce comes out! Okay, well, maybe it's not really magic, but it's a great trick to save you from having to peel, chop, and de-seed all those tomatoes (which is the reason I almost never made sauce from my garden tomatoes until now). We'll take care of the peels and seeds with a blender/food processor and a fine mesh strainer. Yes, a couple of extra things to clean, but it's still faster than all that peeling and chopping! Also, because the peels are cooked in the sauce, you preserve more of the nutrients in them. This is a highly customizable recipe (really more a framework than anything else) - make it smooth or chunky, with meat or vegetarian, regular or low-sodium, or even use it to hide a few extra veggies (a tip for you parents of picky children - you can make them completely undetectable). The quantities are inexact because there's so much variation in the size, taste and texture of fresh tomatoes, and anything else you add will change the flavor. So you really have to adjust the seasonings and other ingredients to compensate. This is part of the art of making tomato sauce, but don't be intimidated! Just add a little bit at a time until it tastes right to you, remembering the axiom: "You can always put more in, but you can't take it back out." Unless you have a real magic wand, of course. :) NOTE: The quality of tomatoes will make or break this sauce; you MUST use fresh, vine-ripened tomatoes from your garden or a local farmer's market, not the variety you find in the grocery store that's been shipped in from another state.

Steps:
- Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add chopped onions and garlic, and cook until onions are slightly soft and golden, stirring occasionally.
- Pour in broth and wine, increase heat to high, and bring to a boil.
- Meanwhile, wash tomatoes. Cut off tops and any damaged parts. Add whole tomatoes to the pot as you go (reserve extra tomatoes to peel, dice and add later if you want a chunky sauce). Note: when I make this, I add however many tomatoes will fit in my 6-quart pot - you will adjust other ingredients later so the exact quantity doesn't matter.
- You may add extra uncooked veggies you wish to "hide" in the sauce now. Some ideas - peas, carrots, broccoli, cauliflower, even a little spinach. Be aware that it may slightly alter the color of the sauce - it can make it a little more orangey - but the tomatoes and seasonings will completely mask the flavor as long as you don't go overboard and add too much.
- When all the tomatoes have been added and the broth is boiling, reduce heat to low and cover. Simmer for about an hour, and then turn off heat.
- Ladle sauce into a blender or food processor until about 2/3 full - you will need to work in batches. It will be soupy and very hot, so be careful. Process until smooth (there will still be some seeds visible).
- Pass sauce through a fine mesh strainer into a large bowl. Use a spoon to scrape the sides of the strainer if it clogs, and press all the liquid out. Discard the seeds and pulp from the peels that are left in the strainer. Carefully return sauce to the pot, and place back on medium-high heat.
- Add tomato paste until sauce is of desired thickness. Add seasonings to taste. Add any additional ingredients you want - diced tomatoes, browned beef or chicken, mushrooms, etc.
- Return sauce to a boil, reduce heat to low, cover and simmer for another 30-60 minutes. Taste and adjust seasonings as necessary. If sauce is too tangy, you can add a little sugar to balance it. It will be done when it tastes just right!

Tips:
- Prepare the dough in advance: Allowing the dough to rest for at least 30 minutes, or up to 24 hours, will result in a more flavorful and easier-to-work-with dough.
- Use high-quality ingredients: The better the quality of your ingredients, the better your pizza or pasta will taste. Use fresh, flavorful tomatoes, cheese, and herbs.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking pizza, make sure to leave enough space between the toppings so that they can cook evenly.
- Cook the pizza at a high temperature: The higher the temperature, the crispier the crust will be. Aim for a temperature of at least 450°F (230°C).
- Don't overcook the pasta: Pasta should be cooked al dente, which means it should be slightly firm to the bite. Overcooked pasta will be mushy and unpleasant to eat.
- Use a variety of toppings: The possibilities are endless when it comes to pizza and pasta toppings. Get creative and experiment with different combinations to find your favorites.
Conclusion:
Pizza and pasta are two of the most popular dishes in the world, and for good reason. They're delicious, versatile, and relatively easy to make. With a little practice, you can master the art of making pizza and pasta at home. So what are you waiting for? Get cooking!
