Pizza Sauce with Anchovies

This pizza sauce produces excess tomato liquid, which would be great added to a braise.

1 (28 oz) can whole peeled tomatoes, drained
2 anchovy fillets packed in oil, drained
2 cloves garlic
6 Tbsp. olive oil
¼ cup fresh basil leaves
kosher salt
black pepper, freshly ground

Pulse tomatoes, anchovies, garlic, oil, and basil in a food processor or blender until mostly smooth (some texture is okay); season with salt and pepper.

Makes about 5 cups.
