Add 1 teaspoon salt and 1/8 cup chiffonaded basil to sauce, stir, and let simmer over low heat for 5 minutes.

For extra crisp pinsa, put oiled and salted pinsa into 500 F oven for 4 minutes - otherwise, skip this first bake.
* Step 7
Once brushed with oil and salt (and prebaked for crisper crust) use large spoon to apply a thin layer of chunky tomato and basil sauce to crust.
* Step 8
Next, spread mozzarella slices, followed by tomato halves, and then uncooked bacon slices.
* Step 9
Place directly on middle rack in 500 F oven for 5 minutes for prebaked crust or 8 to 10 minutes for unbaked crust.
