Love this place - I get so much info on so many topics....

Awesome thread!

We had some of the best tasting pizza of all places...Sault Ste Marie Michigan while camping this summer.
The sauce was chunky and we both raved about how great it was.

All the expert advice here, we will be trying to make the perfect pizza similar to what Lynn made last nite.

Thanks again for all the expert advice here.

There is a brand called San Marzzano, which are grown in california. They are not the same. LIARS!!! marketing ploy.. The D.O.P certified cans are much richer, sweeter and darker than other tomatos.

Also, when buying the cans.. Shake them. The ones that feel very watery will be so and the contents will be more acidic. If the contents feel thicker(puree like), they will be better, darker and sweeter.

Good stuff. Here is more info on the DOP tomatoes with a pic of the seal so you know what to look for:

my can of tomatoes has the seal

Just watch out for these guys. This type is available in many supermarkets.

They are NOT San Marzano D.O.P. Its just a brand name(marketing ploy) that would catch the uninformed. Even stated in the link, they are "named after the region, but domestically grown". I use them often for a quick pasta sauce, and they are not a bad tomato, but they are NOT DOP and do not carry the seal. They are also half the price or less than a can of D.O.P.
