Staying at Home - Week 6

This week one of my more noteworthy dishes is a home made pizza. I made the dough from scratch and chose my own toppings. No, nothing zany like anchovies and brown sugar. I had a little bit of leftover sausages which I carefully socially distanced on the pizza, cracked an egg over it, shaped the pizza into a square (I used a cookie sheet pan to bake) and called it Quarantini.

For the second pizza, I made a seafood variation with supermarket marinara mix over the same tomato sauce base topped with grated cheese. I also sprinkled some mixed herbs which imparted some freshness and called it Marona. 

The base turned out fluffy and crispy on the edges which is not bad for a first attempt. I also like how easy it was actually to make, but there is a skill involved in shaping the pizza and that's why our local pizza store will still be in business!
