How to Make Pizza Sauce

  1. Saute 1/2 cup chopped onion and 2 cloves minced garlic in 2 tablespoons olive oil until translucent (about 5 minutes).
  2. Combine all ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth. For a chunkier sauce, blend for a shorter time.
  3. Pour the blended sauce into a medium saucepan and simmer over low heat for 60-75 minutes, stirring occasionally. This allows the flavors to meld beautifully.
  4. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Add a pinch of red pepper flakes for extra heat, if desired.
  5. Freeze leftover sauce in airtight containers for up to 3 months.
