About the recipe
Everything pizza has its roots in a rich culinary tradition, where home cooking holds a special place. Each ingredient brings a distinct flavor, and their combination creates a unique tasting experience. Using fresh, quality ingredients makes your pizza not only tasty but also healthy.
Step by step
Step 1: Preparing the dough
To get a perfect dough, I recommend using my classic pizza dough recipe. Make sure to let it rise enough so that it becomes fluffy and easy to roll out. Once the dough is ready, sprinkle a little flour on the work surface and roll it out with a rolling pin. Ideally, you should get a sheet of dough of even thickness.
Step 2: Preparing the tray
Greasing the tray with oil is essential to prevent the dough from sticking. Use a brush or a kitchen towel to apply a thin layer of oil over the entire surface. Then, place the rolled-out dough in the tray and make sure it fits well.
Step 3: Processing the ingredients
Slicing the ingredients is a crucial step. The slices should be as thin as possible to cook evenly during baking. Start with the smoked neck, ham, sausages, and bacon. Use a sharp knife or a food processor to get perfect slices. Then, continue with the red onion, mushrooms, olives, bell pepper, and tomato.
Step 4: Assembling the pizza
Once you have sliced all the ingredients, it's time to assemble the pizza. Start by spreading an even layer of tomato pulp over the dough. Add Univer ketchup to taste for a more intense flavor. Sprinkle oregano and pepper on top to enhance the aromas. Arrange the sliced ingredients in the desired order, making sure to distribute them evenly over the entire surface of the dough.
Step 5: Topping with cheese
Once all the ingredients are laid out, it's time to add the cheese. Grate it on a large grater to get large flakes and then, for extra flavor, grate some of it on a small grater. This will help the cheese melt and create a golden, appetizing crust.
Step 6: Baking the pizza
Preheat the oven to 220°C. Place the pizza in the oven and let it bake for 25-30 minutes or until the edges turn golden and crispy. It's important to watch closely towards the end of baking, as each oven can bake differently.
Serving
After the pizza is ready, take it out of the oven and let it cool slightly before cutting it. Serve it with Univer ketchup on the side for an extra flavor boost. A fresh salad can be an excellent accompaniment, bringing a contrast of textures and flavors.
