Equipment

  • 1 Bowl
  • 1 Can Opener

Ingredients
  

  • 1 can Crushed Tomatoes (14 oz or 400 g) See Notes #1
  • 1 tsp Salt (5g)
  • 1 Tablespoon Dried Oregano Leaves
  • 1 Tablespoon Garlic Minced Optional
  • 2 Tablespoon Chopped Fresh Basil Leaves (8 leaves)
  • 2 Tablespoons Olive Oil extra virgin

Instructions

  • 1. Pour the canned crushed tomatoes into a mixing bowl. If the tomatoes are whole, crush them with a masher or fork.
  • 2. Add salt, oregano leaves, olive oil, and minced garlic.
  • 3. Tear fresh basil leaves and stir in gently.
  • 4. Mix well and taste for seasoning.
  • 5. Use immediately or refrigerate in a sealed jar for up to 5 days.

Notes

Note#1: If the tomatoes are whole, crush them with a masher or fork. You can also use a food processor to crush them.
Tomatoes: San Marzano tomatoes give this sauce its classic Italian flavor. If unavailable, use the best-quality canned tomatoes you can find.
No-cook: This is a raw sauce—don’t cook it before spreading on pizza. It cooks beautifully in the oven.
Freezing: Freeze in portions using silicone molds or ziplock bags for up to 3 months.
Prefer smooth sauce? Blitz with an immersion blender for 5 seconds.
