• Pizza dough is tastier if milk or whey is used instead of water. This replacement is suitable for almost every recipe.
• Italians skillfully form the basis for pizza with their hands, without the help of foreign objects. At home, we mainly use a rolling pin. But what if there is none? You can use an empty bottle, roll of foil or cling film.
• To make pizza really tasty and baked, vegetables and other products need to be cut thinly. Slices can be large, but not thick.
