Ingredients

  • 250-280g pizza dough ball (recipe for authentic Neapolitan pizza dough)

Spread the parmesan cream evenly throughout the pizza base using a spoon starting from the center of the pizza. Make sure to leave half an inch at the edge of the pizza without sauce to create a nice edge (“cornicione”) that will puff up in the oven.

A drizzle of olive oil.

Using a wood fire or gas oven at a temperature of 430ׄ°C/806°F. Allow the pizza to bake for 20-30 seconds before turning it with a turning peel. Turn every 20-30 for about a maximum of 90 seconds.
Alternatively, in your home oven, bake on a preheated at the hottest setting for 4-8 minutes.
