PREPARATION
1.
Remove the tomatoes from the puree that's in the can. The puree is a different kettle of fish altogether from the tomatoes themselves, and should be discarded (whole whole tomatoes will be sweet, the puree will be slightly bitter).
2.
Put these into a small food processor.
3.
Add the rest of the ingredients and puree. You'll want to make sure there aren't too many chunks of tomato in the sauce, as they make it more difficult to work with when it comes to actually making a pizza.
4.
Once it's blended, transfer to a bowl and refrigerate for a few hours. This gives the ingredients time to blend and infuse.
