Delicious homemade pizza with creamy buffalo mozzarella DOP from Campania, fresh cherry tomatoes and premium olive oil. An absolute culinary delight from food blogger Marcel Felix from BBQlicate.de.
INGREDIENTS
for 2-4 PERSONS:
- 500g buffalo mozzarella
- 500g flour type 00 (pizza flour)
- 3g yeast
- 1 tsp sugar
- 250ml lukewarm water
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 2 tsp coarse sea salt
- 1 can of tomatoes (diced)
- 1 pack of cherry tomatoes
- 1 tsp Pizza Time or herbs of your choice
- some colorful salad
PREPARATION
- Put the pizza flour in a mixing bowl, make a well in the middle and add a little water, yeast and sugar. Now cover the whole thing and let it rest for 30 minutes. Then add the salt and mix the mixture with a mixer, gradually adding the remaining water until a smooth dough forms. Finally (!) the oil is added and mixed again with the mixer.
- Now preheat a pizza stone in the oven, on the grill or in the pellet smoker for 30 minutes at 240-260 degrees. If there is no pizza stone available, the pizza can of course also be baked in the classic way in a preheated oven.
- The diced tomatoes are now placed in a pot together with the Pizza Time seasoning or herbs of your choice and simmered. The tomato sauce should thicken slightly and not contain too much liquid so that the pizza doesn't end up soggy.
- Cut the buffalo mozzarella and cherry tomatoes into slices, roll out the pizza dough thinly, spread with the tomato sauce and finally top with the mozzarella and tomatoes.
- Now place the pizza on the preheated pizza stone or in the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes. Then let it cool briefly, top with some lettuce and cut into pieces as desired.
Bon appetite!
