Ultimate Pizza Sauce

Ultimate Pizza Sauce layers gently warmed aromatics with sweet-tart Roma tomatoes for a bright, concentrated tomato flavor and a whisper of heat. Herbal notes from oregano, basil, and parsley round it out, making it an ideal base for homemade pies or a dip for cheesy bread on pizza night.
