Just curious how much cheese you put on a pizza ? - when we make them at home we normally put quite low amounts on it (we tend to weigh it out) - not because we want to eat low salt but the pizza tastes more balanced.
Really fast way we often make pizza sauce is by pureeing canned tomatoes and add some spices - takes about one minute
Same here, for sauce for Neapolitan and NY style pizza I just blitz a can of crushed tomatoes with an immersion blender (not totally necessary, it just makes it more smooth) and add some salt. For the NY style I might add some dried oregano too, maybe some garlic powder.
I’ve joined Team Uncooked for my pizza sauce too. I seem to recall someone here on HO tipping me to this, but have never managed to unearth the original post so I could express thanks.
For one pizza, I put about a third of a box of Pomi tomatoes in a bowl, crumble in Greek oregano (the kind that you can buy on the stem is my favorite), smash a clove of garlic, and maybe stir in a little olive oil and salt depending on what the pizza toppings will be. After the mixture marinates at least 30 minutes, I fish out the garlic clove. I just eyeball the quantities.
The Pomi tomato products come in different textures, ranging from smooth to chunky, which is extra convenient for me.
a friend of mine made the ground beef - absolutely delicious and took the pizza to another level, so can’t really cost that, but… the rest of the pizza, maybe £5 total tops.
the sourdough base makes up for the imho just above average topping… Pizza Express’ ‘La Reina’ is probably the standard for my taste - I will get one to share with you
Sadly, no green peppers available and I should’ve loaded more cheese, but was good eating, particularly after I plastered both blue cheese and Bourbon bbq sauce over
