I noticed that most (all?) of 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 the preservatives.
Ingredients
- 1 cup water
- 10 romas tomatoes
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 0.25 cups white sugar
- 2 tablespoons garlic salt
- 1 tablespoon white vinegar
Instructions
-
1
Gather the ingredients.
-
2
Place water, tomatoes, and olive oil in a blender or food processor; blend until smooth. Transfer tomato mixture into a large pot.
-
3
Stir sugar, garlic salt, and vinegar into tomato mixture and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until thickened, stirring occasionally, about 1 to 2 hours.
-
4
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.
