Do you make pizza at home?
Her eyes in my eyes, she did the question.
If you make pizza at home, probably each friend’s kid will consider you a super chef.
Pizza and pizzettas
I cook different kind of pizzas. For example I make little pizzette for aperitivo (perfect also for party), pizzette al tegamino (pan-baked pizza), thin and crunchy pizza rossa and classic pizza, sometimes round sometimes rectangular (it depends form the mold I use).
In these days I was trying my pizzette’s recipe, In may I’ll cook a big lunch for the first communion of the daughter of a friend of mine and we agreed that pizzette have to be in the menu. I decided to make them using spelt flour and I loved the result!
And what about you? Do you make pizza at home?
Buona cucina, Monica
Food Tips
►Add mozzarella just before to take out of the oven.
►If you are thinking of to freeze pizzette, add cheese only when you bake to defrost.
