Pizza Base and Toppings

Method

Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). If you have a pizza stone, place it in the oven to heat up as well.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Pizza Dough

    On a floured surface, roll out the pizza dough into a round shape, about 12 inches in diameter. Transfer the dough to a pizza peel or baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

  3. 3

    Add Olive Oil

    Brush the surface of the dough with olive oil to enhance flavor and prevent sogginess.

  4. 4

    Spread the Ricotta

    Evenly spread the ricotta cheese over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges.

  5. 5

    Sprinkle Cheeses and Seasonings

    Sprinkle the mozzarella and parmesan cheeses evenly over the ricotta. Add the minced garlic, chopped basil, salt, and black pepper.

  6. 6

    Bake the Pizza

    Carefully slide the pizza onto the preheated pizza stone or place the baking sheet in the oven. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until the cheese is bubbly and the crust is golden brown.

  7. 7

    Cool and Serve

    Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing. Serve warm and enjoy your old school white pizza!
