Inspired by the pizza at Bar Del Corso, this Pizza Margherita features tomato sauce, mozzarella, and basil, with just a hint of sea salt. I did not use pizza sauce instead I used sliced homegrown tomatoes that I lightly salted and let drain in a strainer to get the excess liquid out. Today I'm sharing with you a recipe for my favourite pizza, a Margherita.

To begin with this recipe, we must first prepare a few components. You can cook margherita pizza tear and share with chunky tomato dipping sauce using 8 ingredients and 13 steps. Here is how you can achieve that.

James Martin's margherita pizza recipe is serious business - proving the dough overnight gives a sourdough-style crunchy crust. San Marzano tomatoes have dense flesh and a rich, sweet flavour. Fresh tomato sauce, chewy mozzarella cheese, a sprinkling of basil on a crispy crust? I wouldn't be surprised if you started levitating.

Steps to make Margherita Pizza Tear and Share with Chunky Tomato Dipping Sauce:
  1. Put the garlic cloves in a small bowl. Add the quarter cup of olive oil, cover and place in the fridge until needed.
  2. Mix the first 4 ingredients together to form a cohesive dough with no dry flour spots.
  3. Add the remaining 2 teaspoons of olive oil to the bowl and roll the ball of dough around in it so that its surface is covered with a thin sheen of oil.
  4. Cover with a damp tea towel and set aside somewhere draft-free for 5 hours.
  5. After 5 hours, the dough will have risen nicely and be full of bubbles. Without knocking it back too much, portion the dough into 4 equal pieces. Leave three in the bowl.
  6. Remove the garlic oil from the fridge.
  7. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper and place some on your counter as well. Roll the piece of dough into a 10 inch circle, using as little flour as possible to keep it from sticking. Once you have rolled out your circle of dough, transfer it to the lined baking sheet, brush it with some of the garlic oil and sprinkle with a third of the cheese. Repeat until you have four layers of dough and three layers of garlic oil and cheese; the last layer should be plain. Press down the edges.
  8. Take the small bowl that you will be using for your sauce and place it in the center of your dough. Using a sharp knife and making sure that you do not cut through the parchment paper, start from the bottom of the dish that you have placed in the center of the dough to the edge and cut the dough into 16 equal sized strips. Because you are cutting from the edge of the dish, the strips will all be joined around a small central circle of dough.
  9. Working with two adjacent strips at a time, twist them away from each other two or three times. Bring them back side by side and pinch the ends together. Repeat with the remaining strips of dough so that you end up with eight pairs of strips.
  10. Remove the dish from the center. Cover the dough with the damp tea towel and let rest for about 30 minutes.
  11. Preheat the oven to 350.
  12. Once the dough has rested, place it in the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes until it sounds hollow on the bottom but the sides, when gently pinched, have a bit of give. Remove from the oven and immediately brush with the remaining garlic oil and the basil.
  13. Serve with your favorite tomato sauce nestled in the center in the small bowl you used to shape the dough, or with my chunky veggie-full tomato sauce. That recipe is posted at: https://www.onthemenublog.com/post/perch-kofta-or-skip-the-perch-and-have-the-vegetarian-sauce-on-its-own

I am not a strict purist when it comes to margherita, or margarita, pizza. I like the crust to be crispy, but still with a little chew. This is our favorite pizza topping–very simple, delicious and relatively healthy. I buy a ball of dough from a local grocer to save time and effort, but feel free to use any dough of your preference. Quick and easy dinner idea that also makes a great appetizer: Naan pizza margherita.
