Result:
Making traditional Italian pizza is an art that requires patience and skill. Firstly, the dough must be prepared by mixing flour, water, yeast, and salt. After kneading, it needs to rest to rise properly. The sauce, made from fresh tomatoes, is then spread evenly over the surface. Toppings like mozzarella, basil, and olive oil are added according to taste. Interestingly, the pizza should be cooked in a wood-fired oven at a high temperature for the perfect crust. This method ensures that the flavours are well-blended, and the base is crispy.
