New York-Style Pizza Sauce

INGREDIENTS

• 7 tbsp. water
• 2 tbsp. chopped fresh basil
• 1 1/2 tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil
• 2 tsp. dried oregano
• 1 1/2 tsp. sugar
• 1 tsp. minced garlic
• 1 (14.5 ounce) can petite-diced tomatoes, undrained
• 1 (6-ounce) can tomato paste

DIRECTIONS

1. Combine all ingredients in a medium bowl; stir with a whisk.

Yield: 2 2/3 cups (I have enough sauce to make two 14-inch pizzas)

Note: Freezes well in a Ziploc bag, but eliminate as much air as possible.
