How to make the best homemade pizza

Jun 22, 2018

Making homemade pizza is so easy and yet many of us still prefer to order pizza or buy it frozen. This recipe is as delicious as it is relatively unknown. Once you give a try to it, you’ll realize that myths around how making pizza dough can be complicated, are just that: simply myths. The truth is that making homemade pizza is easy, super fun, and in addition it can be quite an experience if you do it with the help of your children. Depending on their age , children can for example help extending the dough or adding the toppings they like the most. My recipe today is a simple pizza with cheese, to which nobody resists. I hope you like it.
