Cool the sauce before spreading it on the pizza base. Warm sauce can make the dough softer and harder to handle.

Did you know?

Red pizza sauce is best when the tomatoes simmer down until the flavor becomes rounder and less watery. Shallot and garlic add depth, while a little sugar balances tomato acidity. A thicker sauce also helps the pizza base stay crisper.
