Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 2 teaspoons garlic minced
- ¼ cup sweet yellow onion diced
- 15 ounces tomato sauce
- 6 ounces tomato paste
- 2 tablespoons Italian seasoning
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano leaves
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- ⅛ teaspoon ground black pepper
Instructions
- Sauté: Bring a medium saucepan to medium-high heat. Add 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil; swirl to coat the pan. Add 2 teaspoons garlic and let cook until it becomes fragrant, approx. 30 seconds. Add diced onion and let cook until it softens, about 1 minute.
- Combine: Add 15 ounces tomato sauce, 6 ounces tomato paste, 2 tablespoons Italian seasoning, 1 teaspoon dried oregano leaves, 1 teaspoon kosher salt and ⅛ teaspoon ground black pepper; whisk to combine. Taste and adjust seasoning, as desired.
- Serve: Whip up a batch of our homemade pizza dough and make your favorite pizza (this wood smoked pizza is amazing and so is this fire grilled pizza)!
Notes
- Storage: let it fully cool and place in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.
- Freezing: once cooled, you can place it in a freezer safe container (make sure there is space in the top for the sauce to expand a bit) and store in the freezer for up to 3 months.
- Sweetness: if you think it needs a touch of sweetness feel free to add in a bit of coconut sugar (or granulated sugar) - start with just a 1/4 or 1/2 teaspoon and go from there.
