Pizza Margherita
Make pizza like a pro in a flash with the super-hot Ooni oven, which bakes a restaurant-quality pizza in just 1 minute. Your pie will emerge with a beautifully crisp crust, just like ones that are cooked in a wood-fired oven. Here we top the dough with tomato sauce, fresh mozzarella and basil to create a classic pizza Margherita, a guaranteed crowd-pleaser.
Ingredients:
- All-purpose flour for dusting
- 6 oz. (185 g) pizza dough, homemade or store-bought
- All-purpose flour for dusting
- 1/2 cup (4 fl. oz./125 ml) tomato sauce, homemade or store-bought
- 1/4 lb. (125 g) fresh mozzarella cheese, torn into bite-size pieces
- 1 cup (1 oz./30 g) fresh basil leaves
- Flaky sea salt for garnish
Directions:
Preheat an Ooni pizza oven according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Let the pizza stone heat to 750°F (399°C), about 10 minutes.
On a lightly floured surface, roll out the pizza dough into a 10-inch (25-cm) round. Transfer the dough to a floured pizza peel. Spread the tomato sauce evenly on the dough, leaving a 1-inch (2.5-cm) border uncovered. Arrange the mozzarella on top.
Using the pizza peel, transfer the pizza to the preheated pizza stone. Bake until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbling, about 1 minute.
Using the pizza peel, transfer the pizza to a cutting board, top with the basil leaves and sprinkle with flaky sea salt. Cut into slices and serve immediately. Makes one 10-inch (25-cm) pizza.
