Perfect Pizza Sauce
Ingredients: Peeled tomatoes, Salt, Fresh basil · 15 min cook time · 50kcal · ₩7,000
Ingredients
800g Peeled tomatoes, 2tsp Salt, 1bunch Fresh basil
Instructions
1. Place the peeled tomatoes in a bowl. You can use San Marzano tomatoes or other Italian peeled tomatoes.
2. Crush the tomatoes by hand for a rustic look, or use a hand blender gently. If using a blender, do not over-blend to avoid breaking seeds and adding bitterness; you still want to see pieces of crushed tomatoes, not a smooth passata.
3. Add salt to the crushed tomatoes. Use 1 tsp of salt for every small can (approx. 400g) of peeled tomatoes. Adjust to your preference.
4. Break fresh basil leaves into the tomato mixture. For larger leaves, tear them into smaller pieces.
5. Mix the basil thoroughly with the tomatoes. The basil will infuse the sauce with flavor, enhancing the overall taste of the pizza.
6. The pizza sauce is ready to use immediately. For enhanced flavor, leave it at room temperature for up to one day to allow the flavors to meld. After one day, store it in the fridge for up to 4-5 days, covered with plastic wrap.
