I make a bunch of this up and freeze. I don't like the bottled pizza sauce on

my pizza.

Herbed Tomato Pizza Sauce Recipe

 

This tomato sauce is lightly herbed with oregano and basil, yet the basic tomato

taste is allowed to shine through. Some pizza aficionados prefer an even simpler

sauce than this, but, you'll like the colors and bouquet this sauce adds to your

own, home-made pizza. This recipe makes about 2 quarts.

 

Ingredients:

 

3 tbsp. - Butter

16 oz. - Tomato puree

3 tbsp. - Olive oil

1 tsp. - Salt

3 - Garlic cloves, minced

1/4 tsp. - Black pepper

3 - Yellow onions, large , minced

1 tsp. - Whole oregano

2 qts. - Whole Italian tomatoes, canned or fresh, peeled and cooked

1 tsp. - Whole basil

 

Preparation:

 

In a Dutch oven or large skillet, melt the butter with the olive oil and slowly

but completely sauté the garlic and onion.
