Pertzi Pizza Perfect!

 


I like Pizza. I have one every Saturday. Almost the same pattern as my daily toast (Toast of Dawn).

Here is the recipe for mine...

Day 1, no later than 18:27:

Stir a packet of yeast into lukewarm water
Add honey, about a teaspoon and still some more
Add olive oil. Top quality stuff. Here, 2 teaspoons

Let that concoction sit (or stand) for 15 minutes.
Add salt, stirrrrrrr again
Then stir into 300 gr of flour (top quality too!)
Make it a nice round blob in a bowl
Cover with a towel and put it to bed overnight. 

Day 2, Start at 11:30:

Wake the dough and prepare the following

Fried garlic, finely chopped
Fried, caramelised onions. A bit coarser than the garlic
Rip apart some honey glazed ham and salami
Bacon fat from breakfasts past and collected in a earthen vessel

Plop the dough down and knead it it. Press into round shape
Apply an even, thin layer of bacon fat on the surface of the now rounded dough. 
Sprinkle the garlic and onion evenly over the dough
Layer the ham and salami
Dowse the whole thing in tomato sauce (I use Barilla)
Cover with cheeeeeeese (Emborg does the job)

Put that masterpiece into the oven. 
Some may like pizza a bit soft (take out earlier)
Others like it crusty (Leave it in a lil longer)

Sprinkle parsley and Italian Uerbs - PREGO!
