Pizza Sauce

Very basic - very fast - very good!
Can be prepared in 45 minutes or less,
but requires additional unattended time.

Makes about 2 1/2 cups

28-ounce can crushed tomatoes in puree
        (preferably Italian; about 3 1/2 cups)
3 tablespoons olive oil

In a large non-reactive saucepan bring tomatoes and oil to a simmer and simmer, uncovered, stirring occasionally, 20 minutes, or until sauce is reduces to about 2 1/2 cups.

Season sauce with salt and cool to room temperature.

(Sauce keeps, covered and chilled, 5 days.)
