the separate ingredients are quite different from them as a sauce. you'd never call a bowl of flour, water, salt, and yeast "pizza dough".

- handrous 5y agoWell, 1) that sure looks like a tomato sauce on top of that bread, and 2) all you do to turn crushed tomato + salt + oregano into pizza sauce is stir slightly. [EDIT] I'm not trying to be a dick about this, I was just really surprised to read that description, coupled with the photo above it. "no tomato sauce" goes on to describe its toppings as exactly what one might mix to get a pizza sauce
- skrtskrt 5y agoTomato sauce also generally cooked down for hours as well, which again makes it taste way different than the ingredients being baked on fresh as-is. EDIT: see my comment on the grandparent and stop being so pedantic
- handrous 5y agoYou don't need to (pre-)cook pizza sauce, though. The thing that struck me was this article about pizza claiming that the exact things you put in pizza sauce, being practically the only things on a piece of flatbread that the article is claiming counts as a style of pizza, is compatible with the article's claim that it doesn't have tomato sauce on it. I mean, either most pizza doesn't feature tomato sauce (because pizza sauce doesn't count, for some reason), in which case why mention it, or otherwise I'm pretty sure this does too.
- dfxm12 5y ago"Tomato sauce" is a very ambiguous term, and pizza sauces are not necessarily cooked. Just open a can of crushed tomatoes (or crush them yourself) and stir in some salt, olive oil and whatever other seasonings you want (garlic, oregano, etc.). That is pizza sauce. That's what it looks like in the picture being talked about.
- p4bl0 5y agoYes because it's missing olive oil ^^.
