Making your own pizza sauce from scratch is not only rewarding but also enables you to customize flavors to your liking. Start by sautéing finely chopped onions, garlic, and bell peppers in olive oil over medium heat. This base provides a depth of flavor that store-bought sauces often lack. Once the vegetables are translucent, stir in crushed tomatoes or tomato puree. For added flavor, incorporate fresh herbs like basil, oregano, and even red pepper flakes for a bit of heat. Simmer the mixture for about 20 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together. If you prefer a smoother texture, blend the sauce until silky. This homemade pizza sauce can be prepared ahead of time and stored in the fridge for up to a week or frozen for later use. Enjoy crafting your perfect pizza with this versatile and simple recipe that makes around 18oz, enough for multiple pizza nights!
