Print: Homemade Pizza Sauce from Scratch

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.
