Made it, tasted it and it was great but when I had it on my pizza, it wasn't spicy enough so will add more pepper flakes next time.

Exceptional again PanNan! Thank you for giving us such great recipes AND in this case saving us money! I love the peace of mind I get knowing what goes into my food! The wine here was a great addition and gave it such flavor beyond the spices. This is a fantastic recipe and definitely a KEEPER! *Made for ZWT*

Made this for a pizza party and froze some of it. It was just as good the second time around.

Spot on! This is really good stuff. I subbed a bit of grape jam and some balsamic vinegar for the wine, as I did not have any. MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM. Great recipe!
