Make the sauce

Scaled for 1 pie · 1 can · Sauce recipe →

Put two-thirds of the can in a deep container with the tomato paste, oregano, salt and oil, and blend smooth with an immersion blender. Crush the remaining third by hand and stir it in. Refrigerate up to 3 days. Let it come to room temperature before spreading it on the dough. Cold sauce chills the dough, so the crust puffs up less in the oven.
