The Best and Easiest Pizza Sauce Recipe Ever

Fool-proof, no-cook, 5-minute, 6-ingredient pizza sauce recipe that is adapted from an authentic Italian recipe from Christina’s Cucina.  Yields 4 cups or enough sauce for 8 10-inch pizzas.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 28 oz or 800 grams canned Italian tomatoes that are actually from Italy
  • 6 tablespoons of high quality Sicilian extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon of kosher salt
  • 6 fresh Italian basil leaves, torn into small pieces (do not crumple)
  • 2 cloves of purple garlic, roughly minced
  • 1 teaspoon of oregano

Instructions

  1. Mix everything well in a large bowl.
  2. If tomatoes are whole, make sure to crush along with the other ingredients.
  3. Pizza sauce is ready. When using, spread enough on pizza but not so much it becomes soggy.
