Homemade Pizza

from scratch ♡
STEP-BY-STEP
  1. Preheat your oven to 250°C. If you have a pizza stone, place it inside while the oven heats.
  2. Let the dough come to room temperature, then gently stretch it on a lightly floured surface.
  3. Spread a thin, even layer of tomato sauce over the dough, leaving a small crust around the edge.
  4. Tear the mozzarella into pieces and scatter it evenly over the sauce.
  5. Add sliced cherry tomatoes, oregano and a little salt.
  6. Bake for 10–12 minutes, until the crust is golden and crisp and the cheese is bubbling.
  7. Finish with fresh basil, a drizzle of olive oil and freshly cracked pepper.
KITCHEN NOTE ♡ The secret to a beautiful crust? Keep the dough light and don't overload it with toppings.

No-Knead Bread

crispy crust · soft inside ♡
STEP-BY-STEP
  1. Add flour, salt and yeast to a large bowl and mix well.
  2. Pour in the lukewarm water and stir with a wooden spoon until a sticky dough forms.
  3. Cover the bowl with a clean towel or plastic wrap.
  4. Leave the dough to rise at room temperature for 12–18 hours. It should become bubbly and almost double in size.
  5. Place a Dutch oven with its lid inside the oven and preheat to 230°C.
  6. Carefully transfer the dough onto a floured surface and gently shape it into a round loaf.
  7. Place the dough into the hot Dutch oven and score the top with a sharp knife.
  8. Cover and bake for 30 minutes.
  9. Remove the lid and bake for another 15–20 minutes, until deeply golden and beautifully crisp.
  10. Transfer to a wire rack and allow the bread to cool before slicing.
THE PERFECT LOAF ♡ Golden and crunchy on the outside, warm and wonderfully soft on the inside.
