  <short_description>Thick and intensely tomatoey</short_description>
  <long_description>A thick and intensely tomatoey sauce that freezes beautifully.</long_description>
  <introduction>
    <![CDATA[<p>A good <a href="/recipes/24532">pizza</a> doesn&#8217;t need fancy ingredients so long as the sauce is full of flavor. Our thick sauce has straightforward tomato flavor and is a snap to prepare.</p>


	<p><strong>Game plan:</strong> This sauce can be stored in an airtight container and refrigerated for up to 4 days or frozen for up to 1 month.</p>]]>

  <instructions>
    <![CDATA[<ol>
	<li>Heat oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. When oil shimmers, add garlic and cook until fragrant but not browned, about 1 minute. Add tomato paste, stir to incorporate, and cook until raw flavor is gone, about 4 minutes. Add crushed tomatoes and oregano and stir to combine. </li>
		<li>Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat to low. Cook, stirring occasionally, until thickened, about 15 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool before using to top pizza.</li>
