The secret to make the perfect Margherita Pizza lies in the ingredients. Even though the toppings are simple the taste doesn’t have to be. Start with our pizza dough and try to find the rest of the ingredients in specialty stores.
Let’s talk ingredients, shall we? The cheese we used for our pizza is Mozzarella made with 100% buffalo milk. In other words we used the real deal. You can easily find it in your neighborhood’s natural store. When it comes to herbs, it is always better if you grow them yourself, that way, your herbs will be as fresh as fresh can get but “fresh” grocery store herbs will do, just make sure they are of top quality.
Our homemade marinara sauce pairs perfectly with our Margherita pizza. We’ll post it soon so you can use it as your pizza sauce, pour it over meatballs or pasta, etc. This is gonna sound too cliché but the possibilities are endless!
