A Brief History of Pizza

Pizza, an iconic dish, has its origins in a simple bread dough topped with various ingredients, which has evolved over time. Over the years, pizza has been reinterpreted and adapted into countless variations, yet it remains a symbol of conviviality and the joy of eating together. This recipe we will prepare today brings a touch of innovation by incorporating milk core, which gives a creamy and rich flavor.

Ingredients for the crust:
- 500 g flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 3 teaspoons sugar
- 2 teaspoons dry yeast
- 300 ml warm water
- 4 tablespoons olive oil

Ingredients for the filling:
- 100 g salami
- 100 g Delaco cheese
- 24 pieces of milk core
- Tomato sauce
- Oregano to taste

Step 1: Preparing the Dough

To achieve a perfect crust, the order of the ingredients is essential. In the bread machine container, add first the 300 ml of warm water, then the sifted flour, salt, sugar, olive oil, and finally the dry yeast. This order will help the yeast activate properly and allow the dough to rise beautifully.

Useful tips:
- Make sure the water is warm, not hot. A temperature that is too high can kill the yeast.
- If you don’t have a bread machine, you can knead the dough manually for 10-15 minutes until it becomes elastic.

Set the machine to knead and rise, which will take about 90 minutes. During this time, you can prepare the tomato sauce.

Step 2: Preparing the Tomato Sauce

In a bowl, mix the tomato sauce with a little oregano. This will give it a wonderful flavor and will perfectly complement the pizza ingredients.

Step 3: Preparing the Baking Trays

While the dough is rising, prepare the trays on which you will bake the pizza. Line them with parchment paper to prevent the dough from sticking.

Step 4: Forming the Pizza

Once the dough has risen, sprinkle a little flour on the work surface and place it on it. Roll it out gently with a rolling pin, forming a round disc about 1 cm thick. Place it in the prepared tray.

Step 5: Assembling the Pizza

Now comes the fun part! Start by spreading a generous layer of tomato sauce on the dough. Then, add a layer of Delaco cheese, followed by another layer of tomato sauce, sliced salami, milk cores, and sliced tomatoes. Finally, sprinkle grated cheese on top and, for an extra flavor, sprinkle oregano to taste.

Step 6: Baking the Pizza

Preheat the oven to 220°C. Once the oven is hot, place the pizzas inside and let them bake for about 20 minutes or until the crust turns golden and crispy.

Serving Suggestions

Your milk core pizza will be delicious served warm, alongside a fresh salad or a refreshing drink. You can pair it with a dry white wine or a craft beer, which will perfectly complement the flavors of the dish.
