    I was thinking he was referring to extra sugar added to the sauce, not the actual tomatoes. Yeah...a little too overboard for me. I love Italian food and I'm not one to add any sugar to my pasta or pizza sauce. For me, the more garlic/onions, the better:).

    Actually, the more I think of it I think it's for vine or plucked ripeness not sauce itself, but as someone posted earlier you can just get a Brix meter for a fraction of the cost to test for ripeness. Of course, you can also just go with your gut like most and that adds nuance to the sauce.

    I am pretty sure that's what it means. Like with winemaking it relates to the level of sugar in the grapes.

    I went cheap and created the wild yeast levain according to the instructions. Then I created the pizza starter from the instructions. Then I created the pizza dough from the instructions. Then I created the pizza without the instructions and it was not perfect. For the instructions to be met, I needed a hotter oven, a pizza steel, and a pizza peel. Having insufficient heat I guessed wrong on the time and the result was magnificent but less than perfect. I carefully logged the ingredients into the recipe tool and came up with 151 calories for 1/4 of one thin-crust pepperoni pizza.
