Jennifer Garner’s Genius 3-Ingredient Blender Sauce Simplifies Cooking
Ina Garten welcomed actress Jennifer Garner on the season four premiere of Be My Guest. The pair cooked and chatted at Garten’s home kitchen.
Brown butter cornbread and high praise
Garten prepared a brown butter skillet cornbread for Garner. Garner called it the best thing she had ever eaten.
Garner shares a lightning-fast sauce
Garner demonstrated a simple 3-ingredient blender sauce she learned from pizzaiolo Daniele Uditi. Uditi serves the sauce at Pizzana, his award-winning Los Angeles restaurant.
The ingredients are one 28-ounce can whole tomatoes, olive oil, and flaky salt. Garner uses a blender to combine them for about ten seconds.
Why it matters
The blender pizza sauce simplifies cooking for home bakers. Ina called it the easiest tomato sauce in history.
How they used the sauce
The duo spread the sauce on pizza dough and baked a simple pizza. Garten also asked Garner to make her pizza cracker.
The pizza cracker is dough brushed with olive oil and herbs, then baked until crisp and bubbly.
Easy variations
The three-ingredient base adapts well to extra flavors. Add garlic, fresh basil, dried oregano, onion powder, or red pepper flakes before blending.
These additions build complexity while keeping preparation fast and straightforward.
Serving and pairing ideas
- Use the sauce with a two-ingredient pizza dough for a quick homemade pie.
- Brush dough with oil and herbs for a cracker-style snack.
- Keep the sauce as a versatile pantry staple for weeknight meals.
