Pizza Tomato Sauce

From the book The Bread Bible by Rose Levy Beranbaum
Yield ¾ cup

Introduction

I prefer to leave this sauce chunky, but for a smooth sauce, simply process it for a few seconds in a food processor.

Ingredients

1 cup (8 ounces) peeled, seeded, and chopped ripe tomatoes (including their juice), or canned crushed tomatoes (including their juice)
1 Tbsp. olive oil
1 large garlic clove, chopped
¼ tsp. hot pepper flakes
2 tsp. chopped fresh oregano or ½ teaspoon dried oregano
¼ tsp. sugar
¼ tsp. salt
~ Freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Steps

  1. In a small saucepan, combine all of the ingredients and simmer, stirring frequently, until reduced to about ¾ cup, 10 to 12 minutes. Taste for seasoning, and cool.
