Short and easy - perfect. Good idea to have the olive oil preventing the sauce and ingredients from penetrating the dough / crust.

Great recipe if you're looking for something with the consistency tomato soup. I used a 6oz can of paste with a little more than a cup of water and it was still ridiculously watery. If I could somehow force Cat Cora to buy me a pizza I would.

A fantastic, quick and easy pizza sauce. I have made it twice now and find that the water proportions are off. For a tweleve ounce can of paste I used about a can and a half of water. A little less oil as well to insure emulsification. You can always add more of anything to adjust to your taste.

This was a good base. However, you will need to add to it to complete it. For instance, 1/2 tablespoon of sugar, garlic powder, and onion powder each. You also need to put it on a very low flame for at least a half hour (don't boilto get the tomato paste taste and the spices infuse into the paste.

Oily! Do NOT use that much oil if you make this sauce. This sauce ruined what would have otherwise been a great pizza. Why in the world would you put so much olive oil in a tomato sauce? The cheese on the pizza already adds the element of oil. This sauce is oil overload. 1/3rd a cup of oil is insane! It was barely even blendable. The sad thing is, had it not been for the overwhelming amount of oil, this sauce might have been a decent pizza sauce. Curse you, Cat Cora. Curse you.

I did like the herb mixture, but with all recipes when it comes to adding liquids play it by ear. I added 4oz of water to 4oz of paste as I do in any recipe that calls for paste 1 to 1 and then adjust as needed. If I would have followed the recipe as writen I would have had a spicy tomatoe juice, not a pizza sauce For this reason low star count. Mine came out great with adjustments to liquid adjustments, plus I did cook it a bit in my Micro to help meld flavors a bit.

the measurements are questionable...which is fine, it's an easy pizza sauce, and people should really be thinking ingredients and what a pizza sauce is ( a thick tomatoey sauce ....i suppose the measurements would mis-lead a beginner and therefore should get a bad rating....but i LIKE it, the fresh rosemary, oregano, and basil sold this one on me, i can measure it myself....check out "jamie's america" pizza sauce, very similar, but uses diced or crushed tomatoes

After doubling the herbs and cooking the sauce for about 20 minutes to get the excess water out, I ended up with what that tasted like oil with a hint of sauce.

The 1 1/2 cups water is obviously too much. I started with1/2 cup water and 6 oz tomato paste and consistency was perfect. The flavor is more intense than name brand canned sauces. Excellent cheap and easy recipe that can be adjusted to your own taste. Thanks.
