The only trick to this uncooked sauce is finding good canned tomatoes: If you can’t find Jersey Fresh, look for ones from California, New Jersey, or Italy—the only ingredients should be tomatoes and salt.
Ingredients
Makes about 3 1/2 cups
Step 1
Whisk garlic, tomatoes, oil, and salt in a medium bowl. Don’t be tempted to add more salt; the flavor will concentrate when sauce is baked with pizza. Cover and chill 3 hours to let flavors come together before using.
Do Ahead
Step 2
Sauce can be made 1 week ahead. Keep chilled.

I substituted 3-4 fresh vine ripe tomatoes, cut and chopped into small bits, instead of using canned. The sauce came out amazing and I've repeated multiple times already.
