Delicious Basic Pizza Margherita Delicious Basic Pizza Margherita
This is the simplest Italian pizza and my favorite.I've made this many times.If I only I had a brick oven at home or an oven that gets hotter than 300℃, I could make even more delicious pizza!Instead of using only mozzarella and parmesan cheeses, I tried adding melting type cheese too, which is easy to eat.If your oven goes up to 300℃, please try cooking your pizza at a high temperature.If you remove the parchment paper and cook the pizza directly on the baking sheet, it will come out crispier.

Margherita Pizza Margherita Pizza
I've never eaten or made this before and I was AMAZED at how delicious it was. Been wanting to try my hand at a margherita pizza forever and all I can say is.. Success! There aren't a lot of ingredients so it's important to get the ones you do use right. The key is the sauce and the main ingredient is definitely the fresh basil. I made my sauce a little different than most do and it worked out swimmingly. I'll for sure be making this many more times!

Genovese & Margherita Pizza Genovese & Margherita Pizza
I made this while remembering the pizza I had when I was in Genova. I get tired of eating the same thing so I made it half and half.Use tons of mozzarella cheese.If mozzarella is difficult to come by, use pizza type shredded cheese.The crust has a lot of olive oil, but since it's rolled out so thinly it's easy to handle. Of course you can decrease the amount if you want. Recipe by Brandy -

Margherita Pizza Tear and Share with Chunky Tomato Dipping Sauce Margherita Pizza Tear and Share with Chunky Tomato Dipping Sauce
This looks fancy-ish for a pizza but was actually a very simple dough to make and an easy technique to implement, with stellar results. I will be making this again, not necessarily for dinner but perhaps as one of the options for a buffet brunch or as a contribution to a potluck or tailgate party. You could make it as is, or add prosciutto or your favorite pizza toppings, or you could even make a cinnamon-sugar version for breakfast as well.
