How to Make Homemade Canned Pizza Sauce
- Peel and puree 2 lbs ripe tomatoes.
- Mince 1 medium onion and 4 cloves garlic.
- Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Sauté the onions and garlic until softened and translucent (about 5-7 minutes).
- Add the tomato puree, 1 (28 ounce) can crushed tomatoes, 2 teaspoons dried oregano, 1 teaspoon dried basil, 1 teaspoon sugar, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper to the saucepan.
- Stir well to combine all ingredients thoroughly.
- Reduce heat to low, bring to a simmer, and cook uncovered for 1-1.5 hours, or until the sauce has thickened to your desired consistency, stirring occasionally.
- Once the sauce has thickened, taste and adjust seasonings as needed.
- Carefully ladle the hot sauce into sterilized pint-size canning jars, leaving 1/2 inch headspace. Remove air bubbles and wipe the rims clean.
- Seal the jars with lids and rings. Process in a boiling water bath for 25 minutes, ensuring jars are completely submerged.
- Remove jars and let them cool completely. You should hear a ‘pop’ sound as the jars seal. Store in a cool, dark place.
