  • Garlic

    2 cloves

Cooking instructions

  1. Heat olive oil in a saucepan. Finely chop the onion and sauté it with the crushed garlic until translucent.
  2. Add canned tomatoes and their juice to the sautéed vegetables. This is easier to use than fresh tomatoes, which need to be peeled first.
  3. Add salt, sugar, and black pepper for a balanced flavor.
  4. Simmer the mixture over low heat for 15-20 minutes. Allow any excess moisture to evaporate so the finished sauce doesn't make your homemade pizza dough soggy.
  5. Blend the mixture until smooth. Your delicious tomato sauce made from tomatoes in their own juice is ready to use.

The foundation of a classic Italian pizza is a proper tomato sauce. Authentic homemade pizza sauce made from tomatoes in their own juice is much more flavorful than regular store-bought ketchup. To make it at home, you don't need fresh tomatoes.
A can of Federici Italian chopped tomatoes in their own juice with basil makes an excellent base for the sauce. Using canned tomatoes significantly reduces overall cooking time and allows you to enjoy the finished dish faster.
