In a kitchen filled with love and aroma, a culinary affair was about to unfold. A dedicated spouse and an artisan at heart, set out to craft a pizza unlike any other. A recipe was born that day, one that delighted a loving husband and one that may soon grace your own dining table.
1. The Base: An Unassuming Beginning
The foundation of our tale begins with the pasta base, an alchemy of simple yet purposeful ingredients:
- Flour: 500g
- Yeast: 5g
- Water: Warm, as needed
- Olive Oil: A generous pour
- Honey: One teaspoon
- Salt: A careful pinch
The yeast, mixed with honey and warm water, awakened, before being joined by flour and salt. Through diligent kneading and patient resting, two doughs emerged, each destined to become a vessel for gourmet creation.
2. The Sauce: A Symphony of Flavours
This is where the plot thickens:
- Onions: Two large, finely diced
- Tomatoes puree: One can of Pomodoro, a taste of Italy
- Oregano: Freshly plucked
- Salt: To taste
The onions were sautéed to translucence in olive oil before joining the tomato puree. Simmering together, they became a rich, fragrant sauce, reminiscent of Italian countryside summers.
3. The Toppings: A Personal Touch
Here, personal flair came into play. Hungarian Kolbasz, Trappista cheese, cherry tomatoes, minced garlic, and some delectable ham slices joined the party. But the real star was waiting: BelGioioso's Parmesan, Grated, a touch of artisan mastery.
4. The Baking: A Culmination of Efforts
Into the oven at 200°C for a precise 8 minutes, the creation was watched with bated breath. When the time arrived, it emerged, golden and tantalizing.
5. The Final Touch: Rucola's Grace
Rucola, freshly picked, was the final flourish, a green embrace to a masterpiece lovingly crafted.
