Homemade Pizza Sauce from Scratch

by

Description

I noticed that most (all?) the pizza sauce recipes call for either tomato paste or tomato sauce or both. I wanted to do it from scratch! So I experimented until I got it right. This is much better than the store-bought sauce with none of those nasty preservatives.

Ingredients

  • 10 roma tomatoes
  • 1 cup water
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • ΒΌ cup white sugar
  • 2 tablespoons garlic salt
  • 1 tablespoon white vinegar

Instructions

  1. Place water
  2. tomatoes
  3. and olive oil in a blender or food processor; blend until smooth. Transfer tomato mixture into a large pot.
  4. Stir sugar
  5. garlic salt
  6. and vinegar into tomato mixture and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until thickened
  7. stirring occasionally
  8. about 1 to 2 hours.
  9. Pour tomato mixture into a clean blender or food processor no more than half full. Cover and hold lid down; pulse a few times before leaving on to blend until very smooth. Repeat with any remaining tomato mixture.
