Favorite Pizza Sauce


Admittedly, I am a canned pizza sauce kind of girl. Well I was out and came upon this recipe (allrecipes.com). I found it oh so delicious and will never use store-bought sauce again. I do think some stewed or pureed tomatoes would be a nice addition.
1 (6 ounce) can tomato paste
1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
Water-- add to dilute sauce to desired thickness
ground black pepper to taste
1/2 tablespoon dried oregano
1/2 tablespoon dried basil
1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary, crushed
Water to thin sauce-- 1/2-1 cup


Mix together the tomato paste and olive oil. Mix well. Add garlic, salt and pepper to taste, oregano, basil, and rosemary. Mix well and let stand several hours to let flavors blend. No cooking necessary, just spread on dough.
