Pizza Sauce

Basic Pizza Sauce

San Marzano tomatoes are traditionally used in Neapolitan pizza sauce. I use whatever I have on hand and it still turns out good.

2 T. Ex virgin olive oil.
5 garlic cloves, minced
28 oz. San Marzano tomatoes
1/2 t. salt
1/2 t. dried oregano
1 small can tomato sauce

Heat oil in medium saucepan over medium heat. Add garlic; cook 1 minute, stirring frequently. Remove tomatoes from can using a slotted spoon, reserving juices. Crush tomatoes. Stir tomatoes, juices, salt and oregano into garlic mixture; bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
