Easy Homemade Pizza Sauce


Our go-to pizza sauce, from Pamela at Recipezaar.

Ingredients
  • 1 (5 1/2 ounce) can tomato paste 
  • 1 cup water
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/8 teaspoon dried basil
  • 1 garlic clove, crushed
  • 1 tablespoon onion, minced (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 3 drops Tabasco sauce (optional)
  • 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (optional)

Directions
  1. Combine all ingredients in a saucepan, using Tabasco sauce and red pepper flakes if you want a zippy sauce.
  2. Bring to a boil.
  3. Simmer gently for 20-30 minutes to improve flavour, but if you're in a hurry, just use a bit less water and mix well.
  4. Use in your favourite pizza recipe.
