Today I called "Nanny"--my grandmother-in-law--to get a homemade pizza sauce recipe. When she realized I was using home grown Roma tomatoes and basil she was really hyped. She explained how her mother made pizza sauce when she was growing up.
In a nutshell, it involved boiling the tomatoes, peeling them, then cooking them down with garlic, basil, and salt.
I already wish I would've cut out the tough "white part" where the stem attaches, before boiling them down. Also, I missed the part about squeezing out most of the juice/seeds before cooking the tomatoes with garlic, basil, and salt... So it's a bit juicy.
My plan is to fill one or two freezer-safe zip-lock bags and freeze them for the next round of homemade pizza--another awesome recipe passed down from Nanny.
To be honest, the sauce is still cooking, so I have no clue how it will turn out, but I'll write an update when I do.
