About the ingredients
As per usual, read the label when purchasing canned tomatoes. Sugar-free is a must. But also consider the quality of the tomatoes – organic products with no additives and thickeners make for the tastiest sauce. Traditionally, plum tomatoes are used for making pizza sauces because they tend to be meatier and contain less water. Also check if your herbs have expired since they make a huge difference in the aroma.
