Homemade Pizza Margherita


Dough:

 

Topping:

mozarella di Buffala

 Yes a pizza recipe! Even pizza is easy to make i dont like most pizzas in restaurants. I think they have to use the cheapest ingredients to make more money out of it but at home you can use the best flour, a tasty mozarella di buffala, great pomodore cuore di bue and fresh herbs. That's a pizza for me:)

Making the dough is a science of itself and how I make it is a secret:( I dont have to tell you everything.
