The Ultimate Homemade Pizza Sauce

Name: The Ultimate Homemade Pizza Sauce
Total time: 35 min
Ingredients: 28 oz Crushed or Peeled Tomatoes Using crushed tomatoes will reduce the step of blending the sauce; however, I typically find higher quality tomatoes labeled as "peeled whole". The higher the quality, the better. My preference is San Marzano's.; 3 Garlic Cloves Medium sized.; 2 tbsp Olive Oil; 2 tsp Dried Oregano; 1 tsp Onion Powder; 1/4 tsp Red Pepper Flakes Or bump this up for some extra spice.; Kosher Salt To taste

Step 1

Heat olive oil in saucepan over medium until shimmering. Add minced garlic, oregano, and red pepper flakes. Cook for 30 seconds.

Step 2

Add tomatoes and onion powder. Continue to cook 3 minutes, lightly crushing the tomatoes with your ladle/spoon. Salt to taste. Reduce heat to simmer and continue cooking until reduced to desired consistency. A thinner sauce will be ready after 5-10 minutes of simmering; for a thicker sauce, the full 30 minutes.

Step 3

Note: If you used peeled whole tomatoes, transfer the sauce to a blender or food processor, or use an immersion blender right in the sauce pan, and blend until smooth (or desired consistency). Crushed tomatoes do not need to be blended.
