Good luck with the contest. I think the tomato sauce should not get so close to the border, leave some more space so the border colour is clearly visible.

It looks very tasty! Thank you for sharing and good luck on the contest!

Try this:
for the tomato sauce, take 5 or 6 tomatoes than long ones (not the big ones or small, round salad).

Put them in a pot and bring to the boll. Wait 15 minutes, half an hour, until they lose their skin.

Turn off heat and remove the tomatoes from water, place them in a blender ... and blend.

After blending it all, put the tomato sauce in a glass jar, add a leaf of basil, and close it tightly.

Make sure the jarr will not open and put it back into the water to boil for another 30 minutes. Careful not to blow it up.

Wait for it to cool without opening the jar.

Now you have the tomato sauce as God commands or at least as an Italian from Naples :)

Before you put on pizza, pour into a pan or dish and add salt (how much is enough) and a drizzle of olive oil.

Do not add all the seasonings, just try it with real mozzarella, a little olive oil and some basil. At best, add the pepperoni.

Or tomato sauce, oregano and black olives.

The ingredients: mozzarella, basil, etc., should be put on the pizza dough raw. And then everything must be put in the oven at 200-220 °.

For the dough I do not know how to help, it is quite difficult, but at least you get something that gets closest to a pizza. Use the oven, it is better ventilated, at 220 ° until the pizza is not cooked. Put the pizza in the middle of the oven.

This is all I know how to make a pizza. I have attached the photo of the tomatoes that you use. And i'm sorry for my english :)

This sounds really cool. I will definitely try it and your English is great. I agree the dough is hard to make especially if it is to warm or humid out.

[Computothought]

Probably very good to eat.

Your Italian dialect is different than what I am used to . i.e. mangiare or Pizze Piu Delizioso. Not into eating feet.

[Hammock Boy]

Do you have any other favorite toppings?

[sandrad35]

Some anchovies might have been good?

Neat. I usually just stick with pepperoni but I will have to try this.
