Starting the month off with a Pizza Thursday is even better than when the month starts on a Sunday! Pizza Thursday right outta the gate seemed like a perfect intro to spring.
I tried to keep that in mind just a tad and put out lots of green on the pizza this week.
- Spelt crust
- Pizza sauce
- Moz and asiago
- Red onion
- Sundried tomatoes
- Broccoli
- Spinach
This pizza was so good and totally perfect because I was starving!
I did something different with the crust this week. Scott and I really like hot sauce on our pizza. The trouble is that as soon as hot sauce hits the heat, it starts running all over the place. When we just used a cookie sheet to bake the pizza this wasn’t a problem as the liquid was contained. On a pizza stone it’s not the same. The liquid runs off the pizza onto the stone and sometimes down to the bottom of the oven.
Hrm? How am I going to handle this situation because we really dig on the hot sauce.
Oh how about hot sauce IN the dough? SCORE! I added it along with some spices as I was making the dough. It smelled amazing and turned out great! Since this was my first attempt I didn’t use too much hot sauce but next time I am putting a ton more in.
Look at that bubble browned cheese! Four pieces went into my bellah!
I love the idea of putting hot sauce in the dough! You are such a clever one Happy Friday!
