If you want a sauce for pizza, return the sauce to the pan. Simmer, uncovered, over low heat, for 30 – 40 minutes to reduce, stirring now and then. Transfer the reduced sauce to a bowl to cool before using as a pizza topping. Simple Tomato Sauce may be frozen.

Preparation: 10 – 15 minutes, plus 1 hour to cook (add an additional 30 - 40 minutes to make the reduced Pizza Sauce).
