Homemade Pizza Sauce from Scratch

Recipesfull introduces to you: Pasta and Noodle Recipes. (Homemade Pizza Sauce from Scratch). I noticed that most (all?) the pizza sauce recipes call for either tomato paste or tomato sauce or both. I wanted to do it from scratch! So I experimented until I got it right. This is much better than the store-bought sauce with none of those nasty preservatives.
