Authentic Italian Recipes

Pizza Dough recipe
This is my personal pizza dough recipe, the one I use at home in my kitchen that I learned from my mother, Carmela. Be sure to start your dough in the morning, that’s the best way. This recipe makes four 10″ pizzas!

- 1 envelope active dry Yeast
- 2 cups warm Water
- About 5 – 5 1/2 cups OO Flour

Pizza Tomato Sauce
A simple tomato sauce that let’s your pizza dough shine as the star. Light, fresh and easy to make. Go for it!
Ingredients
- One 16 ounce can San Marzano tomatoes
- 1 tsp dry oregano
- 4-5 fresh basil leaves
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp pepper


Pizza Margherita
A classic Italian pizza tracing its origin to 1889, 28 years after the unification of Italy to honor Queen Margherita of Savoy on a trip to Naples. Created by pizzaiolo Raffaele Esposito the pizza resembles the colors of the Italian flag. Bravo!

- 4-5 fresh basil leaves
- 2 tbsp olive oil
