If you’re already going to the time and trouble of making your own pizza dough, why not take it a step further and make your own pizza sauce too? This one from Cat Cora is easy to make, comes together in a snap (although you’ll have to wait a bit for the flavours to marry,) and you’ll take that “from scratch” idea up another level. And if you haven’t been watching, make sure you check out Cat along with other celebrity chefs on Sunday for America’s Best Cook. Just because, it’s a really great show!
Ingredients:
1 4-ounce can of tomato paste
1 1/2 cups water
1/3 cup olive oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 tablespoons fresh oregano, chopped
1/2 tablespoon fresh basil, chopped
1/2 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped
Salt
Pepper
Directions:
1.) Mix together the tomato paste, water, and olive oil and mix well. Add garlic, oregano, basil, rosemary, and salt and pepper to taste. Mix well and place in fridge to allow flavours to develop for two hours. Then just spread over pizza dough.
2.) Serve and enjoy!
