I love pizza! Of all the foods out there I can eat pizza every day, as well as Chinese and Mexican foods. Oh and Italian too! I was inspired to try making this myself after having a pizza like this from a little place that was in San Carlos, CA called Cheshire. This pizza uses tomatoes instead of tomato sauce. Are you ready for some pizza!
Pizza! Pizza! Pizza! Pizza!
Ingredients
Pizza Dough, I use a pre-made dough in this recipe
Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Basil and Oregano, dried
1 huge ripe tomato
5 cloves of garlic finely chopped
Prosciutto – You can buy this in a thick slice, or some brands offer this already chopped
Black Olives
Capers
Parsley flakes
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Take your pizza stone, brush it with a bit of non-stick cooking spray. Then spread out the dough to the edges.
Put this into the oven and bake until the bottom side of the crust is browned, about 12 – 18 minutes.
Remove from the oven and let this sit for a minute or two, if you can, then slice and serve!
I hope that you enjoy this as much as we did. This is a 2 – 4 serving pizza, depending on whether you want to share it!
Fairly sure the original Pomodori Pizza from Cheshire Pub didn’t have olives, but thanks for posting this.
No it did not have olives, but they add to the pizza!
I found the cooking technique fascinating as well. Fun to learn from other’s experience.
The use of tomatoes rather than a sauce let’s you really taste all the flavors of the other toppings. And, less calories!
adds texture too!
Once you have tried this pizza you won’t want to share it, so make two!
This looks absolutely gorgeous, will have to give it a go.
