My favorite basic pizza sauce from Pizza and Other Savory Pies by Brigit Binns.
1/4c olive oil
5 cloves of garlic, minced
1 - 15oz can crushed San Marzano tomatoes
1 tsp dried basil
3/4 tsp dried oregano
1/4 tsp dried thyme
1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper
up to 2 Tbs red wine vinegar
salt to taste
In a small frying an over medium heat, warm the olive oil. Add the garlic and cook, stirring frequently, until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. Be careful not to scorch the garlic!
In a bowl, stir together the garlic-oil mixture, tomatoes, dried spices with 1/3c of water and 1.5Tbs of the vinegar. Seasons to taste with salt and vinegar.
Refrigerate up to one week or freeze for future pizzas.
