"This sauce is bursting with the natural sweetness of the fresh tomatoes. The addition of salt with, a touch of sugar balances the acidity, and the oregano and freshly chopped basil make this sauce an aromatic masterpiece. Do not use dried basil for this sauce, it will not compare to the fresh basil. This is enough sauce to cover one large pizza."
