• 1 Pizza Peel
• 1 sauce ladle
• 1 wooden chopping board or peel for prep and serving

Ingredients

  

1x2x3x

• 1 pizza dough ball
• 1 ladle of pizza sauce
• Fresh mozzarella cheese
• Low moisture mozzarella cheese
• Grana padano cheese
• Asparagus
• Extra virgin olive oil

Instructions

 

• Prepare Dough: Follow any of our dough recipes. You will need to prepare the dough at least 24 hours ahead of time.
• Prepare Sauce: We recommend our standard pizza sauce which is versatile, simple to make and is perfect for Neapolitan style pizzas. Spice up this sauce however you like, remember the best part about making pizza is the creative process!
• Prepare Cheese: Place your fresh mozzarella in a container or bowl with a paper towel at the bottom to allow some of the water to drain. Finely grate the grana padano, tear both the fresh and low moisture mozzarella into medium-sized pieces. Set aside.
• Prepare Asparagus: Roughly chop the fresh asparagus. Set aside.
• Preheat Oven:

  If using an outdoor pizza like an Ooni pizza oven, aim for a temperature of 450-500°C at the center of your pizza stone. Use an infrared thermometer to ensure accuracy. It should take around 25-30 minutes to reach temperature.

  For a home oven, using a pizza steel or stone, place the stone or steel inside the oven and preheat to the highest temperature for at least 30 minutes.
• Prepare Base: On a lightly floured surface, stretch out the dough by hand according to the steps outlined in our dough recipe. Once you're happy with the shape of the base, lightly dust your pizza peel and transfer the dough onto the peel.
• Assemble Pizza: Assemble the pizza by spreading a ladle of sauce in a circular motion, starting from the center and working outwards. Add a generous sprinkle of grana padano cheese, distribute pieces of mozzarella cheeses evenly across the dough, ensuring the pieces are about 2 cm in diameter and at least 1.5 cm apart. Distribute chopped asparagus over the pizza and finish with a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil.
• Bake Your Pizza:

  If you're using an outdoor pizza oven, launch the pizza into the oven and bake for 60-90 seconds. Keep an eye on the pie and rotate every 10-15 seconds to ensure even cooking and to avoid burning.

  For a home oven with a pizza steel or stone, the bake time should be around 7-10 minutes.
• Serving: Once the pizza is done, remove it from the oven and place it on a serving board. Now it's time to enjoy your delicious margherita pizza with asparagus!

Today, we’re excited to bring together the spicy heat of Nduja and the fresh, light touch of zucchini ribbons on a pizza!

Nduja, a spicy, spreadable sausage from Calabria, delivers a rich, smoky flavour with just the right amount of kick for those who crave heat. The combination of fresh mozzarella and low-moisture mozzarella creates a creamy, smooth texture that beautifully balances the spiciness of the Nduja. Zucchini ribbons add a crisp, refreshing contrast, bringing a light and airy freshness to each slice.

A sprinkle of oregano further enhances the pizza’s flavour with its earthy, aromatic notes, while a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil (EVOO) ties it all together with a rich, glossy finish.

Today, once again, we’re utilising a Polish favourite, accompanied by fresh chives from the garden, to create a Polish Smoked Bacon and Chives Pizza.

The star of this pizza is the boczek, a type of Polish smoked pork belly that is usually cured and smoked. Popular among Polish people, boczek is often enjoyed as a snack on bread, accompanied by mustard, vegetable pickles, and other condiments. Boczek elevates any dish it is added to, and we particularly love its contribution to pizza.

Complementing the boczek are freshly snipped chives from the garden, adding a mild, onion-like flavour that cuts beautifully through the richness of the bacon. Chilli flakes introduce a touch of heat, which is beautifully balanced by the creaminess of the cheese blend, awakening and elevating all the other elements of the dish.

Polish Smoked Bacon and Chives Pizza

The Polish smoked bacon (boczek) offers a rich, smoky, and slightly spicy flavour, perfectly balanced by the fresh, sharp taste of chives. Together with the tangy tomato sauce, creamy mozzarella blend, and the subtle saltiness of grana padano, this pizza hits all the right notes.

To make this Polish Smoked Bacon and Chives pizza pie, you'll need a handful of simple ingredients and a little time to prep the dough and toppings. Follow our step-by-step instructions, and soon you'll be savouring a slice of this extraordinary and flavourful pizza. Bon appétit!

  For a home oven with a pizza steel or stone, the bake time should be around 7-10 minutes.
• Serving: Once the pizza is done, remove it from the oven and place it on a serving board. Add the goat's cheese, followed by basil leaves and pomegranate arils. Drizzle with balsamic glaze and finish with a sprinkle of grana padano. Now it's time savour your delicious homemade pomegranate & goat’s cheese pizza!

At My Husband Makes Pies, we love to challenge the conventional when it comes to pizza toppings. Today, we’re delighted to introduce an intriguing combo: Plum jam and Polish bacon (boczek).

Plum jam, a homemade favourite in our household, brings a deliciously sweet and tart twist to the pizza. Its fruity notes act as the perfect foil to the savoriness of Polish bacon, which brings its distinctive smoky flavour to the mix. Polish bacon, rich in tradition and flavour, introduces a robust smoky element that beautifully complements the sweetness and tartness of the plum jam, creating an exciting fusion of flavours on your palate.

Added to this combination is Gouda cheese, famous for its rich, buttery, and slightly sweet taste. It melts beautifully, blending well with the fresh mozzarella, providing a delightful cheese pull with each bite. Topped off with fresh rucola (or rocket) and a drizzle of Extra Virgin Olive Oil (EVOO), the result is a pizza that’s bold and delicious.

Plum Jam and Polish Bacon Pizza

The homemade plum jam brings a sweet and tangy flavour to the table, wonderfully counterbalanced by the rich, smoky and savory Polish bacon.Together with the creamy Gouda and fresh mozzarella, this pizza creates a daring yet delightful flavour profile that is perfect for those who enjoy experimenting with their pizza toppings.

To create this Plum Jam and Bacon pizza, you'll need a few straightforward ingredients and some time to prepare the dough and toppings. Follow our step-by-step instructions, and you'll be enjoying a slice of this beauty of a pizza in no time. Bon appétit!

• 1 wooden chopping board or peel for prep and serving

Ingredients

  

1x2x3x

• Polish bacon (preferred, if inaccessible use bacon type of choice)
• Rucola (rocket)
• Extra virgin olive oil

Instructions

 

• Prepare Dough: Follow any of our dough recipes. You will need to prepare the dough at least 24 hours ahead of time.
• Prepare Plum Jam: If you're interested in making your own plum jam, we recommend this recipe, which we use a close variation of.

The cheese pieces should be around 2 cm in diameter and at least 1.5 cms apart. Add the Polish bacon, and then another light drizzle of extra virgin olive oil.

Smoked salmon boasts a smooth, smoky flavor with the perfect hint of saltiness, making it a lavish and flavorful topping for any pizza. On the other hand, there’s burrata – an exquisite Italian cheese. The exterior of burrata is mozzarella, providing a firm yet delicate casing.

The union of smoked salmon and burrata on a pizza results in a harmonious blend of smoky, creamy, and slightly salty flavors. Add in some fresh dill and chives into the mix, and you have a touch of aromatic freshness that brightens the overall flavour profile. Together, these ingredients craft a pizza that is as daring and delicious, perfect for those craving a delicious, artisan pizza experience.

At My Husband Makes Pies, we enjoy honoring traditional favorites. However, today’s star is a delightful variation of the classic Margherita pizza.

Our take on the Margherita Pizza utilises low moisture mozzarella in place of traditional fresh types like fior di latte or mozzarella di bufala. This simple alternative provides a firmer texture, promotes a sturdier base, and allows a generous cheese topping. It also offers a slightly saltier note than its fresh counterparts.

Tied together with fresh basil, high-quality Italian tomatoes, and a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil, this is the perfect pie for those who appreciate a simple yet thoughtful twist on a timeless classic.

Margherita Pizza – Low Moisture Mozzarella

This delicious margherita pizza with low moisture mozzarella is a simple, yet satisfying variation on a timeless classic. You'll need a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time to prep the dough and toppings.
