Tomato Sauce with Basil

 

1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil

4 large cloves garlic, smashed

2 28 ounce cans whole peeled tomatoes, with juices, about 7 cups

1 teaspoon kosher salt

2/3 cup packed basil leaves

freshly ground black pepper

Put the olive oil and garlic in a saucepan and cook until fragrant, 2

minutes. Add tomatoes and salt. Break up the tomatoes into small chunks with

a wooden spoon and bring to a boil over high heat, lower heat to a brisk

simmer, and cook until thickened, about 30 to 40 minutes.

 

While sauce cooks, tear basil leaves into small pieces. Remove the sauce

from the heat, stir in the basil, and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper,

to taste.

4 cups.
