Steps:
- Preheat oven to 450 degrees. In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar, undissolved yeast, and salt. Gradually add water and oil to mixture. Blend at low speed until moistened, then beat for 2 minutes at medium speed until dough pulls away from sides of the bowl. On a lightly floured surface, knead until dough is smooth and elastic. Cover loosely with plastic wrap and let rest in a warm place for 15 minutes. Press out dough onto 3 pizza pans. Poke the dough randomly with a fork. Let rise again in a warm place for 10-15 minutes. Brush crusts lightly with oil and bake them for 5 minutes. Remove from oven and top as desired. Bake for 4-5 more minutes or until the crust is golden brown.

Tips:
- Use high-quality tomatoes: Fresh, ripe tomatoes are essential for a flavorful sauce. If fresh tomatoes are not available, use canned whole tomatoes that have been packed in tomato juice.
- Roast the tomatoes: Roasting the tomatoes before making the sauce intensifies their flavor. To roast the tomatoes, place them on a baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil. Roast at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 30-40 minutes, or until the tomatoes are softened and caramelized.
- Use fresh herbs: Fresh herbs, such as basil, oregano, and thyme, add a lot of flavor to the sauce. Add the herbs towards the end of cooking so that they do not lose their flavor.
- Simmer the sauce: Simmering the sauce for at least 30 minutes allows the flavors to meld and develop. You can simmer the sauce for longer if you have time.
- Season the sauce to taste: Add salt, pepper, and garlic powder to taste. You can also add a pinch of red pepper flakes for a little bit of heat.
