PIZZA: A Family Staple
Crust of your choice (I use artisan bread dough)
Sauce
One can of tomato paste.
Five cloves of garlic confit (one tablespoon of garlic oil included).
Two tablespoons chopped fresh basil.
Plenty of other fresh herbs of your choice (I like oregano, marjoram, thyme) to taste.
Salt and pepper to taste.
Heat and let simmer until all the flavors mingle.
Cheese
I strongly encourage you to use fresh mozzarella. Costco has good prices, WinCo has it, too. Find it. Use it. Slice it as thinly as possible.
Toppings
Use your imagination. My favorite is basil, tomato, caramelized onions, artichoke hearts, olives. We have meat lovers that prefer sausage, pepperoni, and ham.
The picture above is from Fitzpatrick Winery. We loved their Friday night Pizza dinner last week, and I am now coveting the oven...I really want a wood fire pizza oven in my yard. Maybe someday.
