The Rawtarian's Thoughts
By The RawtarianI love using this raw tomato sauce recipe as a raw pizza sauce, spaghetti sauce and more! Serve as a raw spaghetti sauce over raw zucchini noodles, chopped cabbage as noodles or raw kelp noodles. This raw tomato sauce recipe can also be used as a raw pizza sauce on top of a raw pizza crust.
This recipe keeps well in the fridge for up to three days.
The sun-dried tomatoes will make or break this recipe. They need to be chopped a bit and soaked in oil to soften them. (I generally always store my sun-dried tomato slices in extra virgin olive oil in a jar in the fridge. It's easiest if they are chopped before soaking in oil, too.)
This is a small batch. However, the flavour of this raw tomato sauce recipe is so strong (thanks to the sundried tomatoes) that a little sauce goes a long way.

If I wanted to make this sauce thinner, could I just add water? Or should I add regular tomatoes? What do you think would work best?

Hi Morgan, for a thinner sauce I would add more fresh tomatoes :)

I can see why this sauce would be great on top of raw pizza. I poured it over zucchini noodles and added mushrooms. Super fast dinner or it could be I’m better at handling knives.

I'm not sure what to make next! I just got a dehydrator and I am beyond excited to use it. I think I want to make some raw cheese. I am trying to get myself to stop relying on Follow Your Heart vegan cheese. Vegan junk food is my downfall.

Yay for your new dehydrator! If you haven't made crackers yet, I recommend that you start with these crackers. They are super delicious, and impossible to screw up :)

Raw tomato sauce recipe
I'm fairly new to raw cuisine, and I am totally enjoying your site and recipes. This tomato sauce is very good, very tasty, it's kind of robust. I added fresh spinach to my last batch which turned out nice and different, I'll try adding kale next time. Pleasantly surprised that raw meals can be this good and satisfying.

I'm so glad that you're enjoying raw, Brena! I like your idea of adding some greens to the tomato sauce.

Hi Becky,
You can make them in your dehydrator, or you can simply purchase them at your grocery or health food store :) I like to buy the ones soaked in oil
