Steps:
- In a medium saucepan over low heat, warm the olive oil.
- Add the garlic and cook, stirring, for about a minute. If you're using dried oregano, add that along with the garlic. If you're using fresh, add it to the sauce at the end of the cooking time.
- Increase the heat to medium. Add the tomatoes, sugar, red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper.
- Leave over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until boiling. Reduce heat to low for a nice simmer.
- Gently simmer uncovered for 90 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Stir in fresh oregano, if using that instead of dried.
- Allow the sauce to cool to a safe temperature and then, using an immersion blender or working in batches with a blender, puree sauce.
- Assemble pizza using your delicious homemade sauce, or refrigerate until ready to use. Keeps well in the fridge for about 4 days. I love to freeze this sauce in individual-pizza portions, too.

Steps:
- Halve the tomatoes lengthwise through the stems. Squeeze the tomatoes over a bowl or sink to remove the seeds and watery centers. Chop the remaining tomato flesh roughly and transfer to a food processor. Add the oil, tomato paste, sugar, oregano, garlic, 1 tablespoon salt and some pepper and pulse until mostly pureed with some small chunks. Pour into a fine-mesh sieve over a bowl and let some of the watery liquid drain, shaking gently for about 30 seconds to help it out. Pour the tomato sauce into another bowl or jar and use immediately or refrigerate up to 1 day.
