Wonderful recipe! One question, though: I think a calamansi is a citrus-like fruit? Tastes like bitter orange? We don't get them here (that I know of)....I'm trying to come up with a substitute...


I like the addition of the raisins; something we would not normally mix with tomato (pizza) sauce, but I bet it's really good!


I had to look up what calamansi was, this recipe sounds similar to one I make. My husband loves them.
