Pizza Sauce | Homemade Pizza Sauce with step by step pictures. Pizza sauce is basically tomatoes flavored with garlic, Italian seasoning and pepper. It is very easy to make it in home and takes less than 15 minutes. I have never used store bought pizza sauce. I make this whenever I want to make pizza in home. It is so flavorful and we can adjust the seasonings as per our choice. You can use the leftover pizza sauce while making pasta too.
I have included two methods of making pizza sauce here. Basically both the methods uses the same ingredients. In one method we saute the tomatoes and blend them. In other method we puree the tomatoes and then saute them. I have noticed that we get nice color using the second method similar to store bought ones. You can find the difference between first two pictures. Taste wise both will be same whereas second method will have chunks of garlic. If you want your sauce very smooth you can blend it too.
You can use this to make whole wheat pizza or Dosa pizza.
