Instruction manual
1
Dilute the yeast in 100 g of slightly warmed water. Thoroughly sift the flour on a kitchen table. Make a recess inside, in which place salt, vegetable oil and diluted yeast. Add water to replace the dough. It is best to use heated mineral still water.
2
Knead the dough well until elastic, cover with a towel and leave for 3 hours. After a specified period of time, knead the dough a second time, letting it settle. After 1.5 hours, you can start cooking pizza.
3
During this time, prepare the filling for Italian pizza. Wash the tomatoes thoroughly and cut into very small pieces to make a uniform tomato mass. Lightly salt to taste and mix.
4
Grease a baking sheet with olive oil. Roll a thin round cake of round or square shape and lay on the prepared sheet. Put the tomato mass on top of the dough, sprinkle lightly with olive oil. Garnish with leaves or small pieces of basil.
5
Preheat the oven to 240 degrees and bake pizza for 25 minutes. At this time, cut the mozzarella or other soft cheese into thin slices. Remove the Margarita pizza from the oven and place the cheese on the tomatoes. Once the cheese has melted, the dish is ready.
Useful advice
Replace the basil with dried oregano if necessary. Tomatoes can be replaced with tomato sauce. But consider the fact that fresh tomatoes give a richer taste and aroma.
