In the kitchen making pizza….

Thick-Crusted Sicilian-Style Pizza with Onions

This pizza looks was so appetizing, I just had to make it – twice!

I chose to use the Master Recipe (page 59) to make the crust and topped it with mozzarella, tomatoes, onions , a drizzle of olive oil and sprinkle of salt. Anchovies are an option but I also added them to the pizza. My family loved the taste of the combined flavours on a slightly thicker dough.

Classic Pizza Margherita

I used the Master Recipe to make this delicious classic pizza. The Master Dough recipe makes enough dough for 2-4 pizzas, depending how large you make the pizzas.

I topped the pizza dough with fresh tomatoes and chunks of fresh mozzarella and a drizzle of olive oil. Then it was baked it on a preheated pizza stone which resulted in a crispy, thin crust. Fresh basil was added, the pizza cooled slightly and then we devoured it! It tasted so good!
