This is a homemade tomato sauce base for the pizza that C learned from the Meyer's Cooking Camp over the summer holidays. Today she taught me how to make it. It tasted very good :-)

Buy such tomatoes from the supermarket. They are the most expensive, but they are worth it as they are full of taste. Don't buy the big ones, they are not as tasty.
