Used this on my homemade sourdough pizza and loved it! Didn’t use the garlic/onion infused oil in the sauce itself (feared it would dissolve with the water in the tomatoes), but brushed it into the crust before baking instead. Highly recommend!
Brilliant idea!
Thank you SO much for sharing this feedback and your review. We love hearing comments like this 🙂
Have a WONDERFUL day!!
Can you share some possible unseasoned tomato sauce brands? I can’t find any online.
Hi Cathleen,
Thanks for the question! When we wrote this blog, we were able to find some, but cannot recollect the brand. We have also noted more recently, that this is a tougher ingredient to locate in stores.
Walmart makes a ‘Natural’ tomato sauce that doesn’t contain these ingredients (“Natural Value”). Other stores may also offer a ‘natural’ product.
However, it typically is much easier to find a tomato paste that is without these additives. We often will ‘create’ tomato sauce with the combination of 1/2 tomato paste with 1/2 water. So for 1 cup sauce, use 1/2 cup of each (or similar ratio based on the recipe). Good luck!
If I do not use it all, can it be frozen for later use? I need to make low fodmap pizzas because I reacted to garlic with severe constipation.
Hi Crystal,
Absolutely. You can freeze the sauce if you like. Thanks for the question!
