2 Puree the drained tomatoes well. It is important to use Italian Plum Tomatoes, not regular canned tomatoes. The flavor is distinctively different. If you cannot find Progresso Plum Tomatoes with basil, add 1/2 ts. basil to the tomatoes.
3 Place the puree mixture in heavy saucepan. Add remaining ingredients except for the grated cheese and brown sugar. Simmer 1/2 hour, or longer if necessary. Add cheese and brown sugar last 10 minutes of cooking. The canned grated parmesan is good in this recipe, as well as fresh.

Procedure
1 If you don't like small bits of tomato in the sauce, puree the whole tomatoes in the blender first. Otherwise, chop them as the mixture cooks.
2 Mix all ingredients, except oregano, in large saucepan. Simmer for 30 minutes, then add oregano. Cook additional 15 minutes.
3 Sauce is best if cooked then chilled, overnight, in the refrigerator.
4 To Use: Prepare basic pizza dough. Spoon sauce onto crust out to rims, cover with thick layer of mozzarella cheese. Top with meat and vegetable toppings, then cover again with mozzarella and parmesan (or romano) cheeses. All cheeses are best if freshly grated.
