Equipment

  • Skillet
  • container

Ingredients

  • 1/8 teaspoon of freshly ground black pepper adding a gentle touch of heat and a subtle spiciness that rounds out the savory notes in your recipe.
  • 14-ounce of plump and juicy whole peeled tomatoes, their vibrant red color and succulent flesh promising a burst of rich, tomatoey flavor to your dish.
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt the essential seasoning that balances and enhances the tomato's natural sweetness, creating a harmonious and flavorful profile.
  • 1/2 tablespoon dried oregano a fragrant herb with a hint of earthiness, introducing a captivating and herbaceous aroma that elevates the dish's overall character.

Instructions

  • Begin by heating some olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
  • Once the oil is hot, add the minced garlic to the pan and sauté until fragrant – about 1 minute.
  • Stir in the oregano, black pepper, and salt into the mixture and continue to cook for an additional 30-45 seconds.
  • Add the tomatoes to the skillet, crushing each one with a wooden spoon as you add them into the saucepan.
  • Bring the sauce to a low boil and reduce heat to allow simmer for about 25 minutes or until it has reached the desired thickness.
  • Give your sauce a taste test and adjust the seasoning if necessary.
  • When the sauce is finished, use it immediately or transfer it to an airtight container for later use.

Notes

  • It’s best to use fresh ingredients whenever possible for this recipe. The flavors will be much more vibrant and delicious.
  • This sauce can also be used as the base of a creamy white pizza, just replace the tomatoes with a white sauce like Alfredo or Bechamel.
  • Make sure to not overcook your sauce – once it reaches the desired thickness it’s ready to be used.
