What You Need To Know About Fresh Tomato Pizza And Wine
The most popular Italian pizza tomato is the San Marzano, which comes from the Campania region in Southern Italy, the home of pizza for centuries. This tart, relatively seedless tomato is also prized for pasta dishes. These tomatoes are hand harvested so you will pay somewhat more for them. Look for the DOP (Denominazione d' Origine Protetta) designation on the label. Simply open a can and mash them and you have the base for a great pizza sauce.
In addition to the wines mentioned in our food pairing table you might consider a Chianti or a Sauvignon Blanc.
