YUM! Looks great! Great video!!

the baking soda would reduce the acidity (the chemistry is acid+base = salt, i.e. a chemical salt), not sure if this actually improves the sauce, especially since the amount added is so ridicolously small.

I watched the video again, and saw you mentioned the roast-the-herb-thingy. I skipped through that part when i saw it the first time. :p But yes, it is a very good trick! Also, baking soda, that was new. O.o Creative grandmother, i must say that. :p

7. Taste the sauce, and possibly add some salt and pepper here, some chili if you like that. It's also HERE you add the garlic, which shouldn't be chopped, but pressed, because the finer processed garlic, the more juice available. The more juice, the more dominant the garlic taste becomes. Only 1 or 2 cloves needed here.
8. Simmer till most of the water is gone: more consentrated sauce.
And presto: a good pizzasauce. :)

2. gently roast some basil, rosemary, thyme, oregano and a tad of curry.
3. Add some good minced meat. Doesn't have to be the expensive fatless, but mustn't be too fat either. 8-12% fat should do it.
4. When it's completely done, add the tomatoes. Any kind of canned tomatoes is good if you're lazy.
5. Add some cream, it gives the sauce a more bold, soft flavor.
6. Add in some vegetables: red pepper, squash, corn, peas, cherry-tomatoes, whatever you like.

This isn't my preferred way to make a good pizza sauce.
If you roast the garlic too early in the process, it will lose flavor and become bitter, which isn't that nice on a pizza.
If you roast your herbs though, you will boost the flavor in them, which is great.
My way to make a fantastic pizza sauce:
1. Heat some olive-oil on a large pan. If possible, get some local oil from the danish island Bornholm, south of sweden. Top quality!
Why squash the tomatoes (gives me a rash) and strain the seeds, when you could have just used tomato puree?

You could, if you can find puree San Marzanos, but i find the domestic purees are not of the same quality and sweetness as the whole peeled style. But, use what works for you. Enjoy!
