If, in the middle of a starry evening, you see constellations in
myriads of circular shapes and envision strands of Mozzarella
dangling from your mouth, and juicy tomato sauce sticking on your
lips, then you are definitely suffering from pizza deprivation. Here
is a simple recipe that will cure even the most serious case.
One evening, the pizza fever became so acute for all ten members of
our group that we could not wait to make our own pizza and were
forced to resort to emergency procedures. Luckily, our campsite was
near a phone where we called Luigi's Pizza, and within 20 minutes the
lifesaving truck arrived. We frantically emerged from the woods and
ran towards the truck to our awaiting large pizza with the works.
After devouring one piece we were instantly cured and could calmly
return to our sleeping bags.
Dough:
Dissolve yeast in warm water.
Stir in the flour and oil. Knead about 3 minutes. Allow to rise until
double in bulk.
Spread dough over oiled fry pan. Bake 10 minutes in coal oven, then
remove and add topping.
Topping:
Spread sauce on crust.
Sprinkle spices on top.
Spread an even layer of cheese and vegetables.
Bake pizza for another 10 to 15 minutes. (Fire pit method.)
