👨‍🍳 Method

For the Meatball mix

  1. 1
    Preheat the oven to 180°C (355°F).
    ⚙ Preheating the OvenOven
    💡Put things in the oven only once it's reached temperature, after the heating light has gone off: an oven that hasn't reached temperature changes baking times, and the bake burns outside or stays underbaked.
  2. 2
    Mix the ground meat with the salt and black pepper until evenly combined.
  3. 3
    With wet hands, shape patties the size of golf ball.
    💡Wet hands don't stick to the mixture, and the patties come out smooth and even.

For the Tomato sauce

  1. 4
    In a bowl, mix the tomatoes with the salt. Don't cook it: the sauce cooks on the pizza in the oven.
    ⚙ SimmeringStoveSmall saucepan
    💡Spread cooled sauce on pizza: hot sauce softens the dough even before baking.
    💡A gentle simmer, not a boil: a hard boil dries the food out and clouds it, a slow simmer cooks it evenly.
  2. 5
    Spread the meat mixture on Parchment paper into a rectangle.
