The Italian Pizza

Yesterday(04/05/21) at technology(in Moerewa) for the first time me and the other year 7’s did cooking.  At tech with Whaea Dot(cooking teacher) we made homemade pizza and a homemade pizza base using oregano, yeast, oil, sugar, white flour, milk powder to make the bread softer and water. First we put sugar, yeast and water in a big metal bowl swirled it and put it in a warmer at the bottom of an oven. Once that was done we went out to play on the park but when we came in we got to use knives to cut lots of vegetables and meat such as tomatoes, onion, mushrooms, garlic, ham, capsicum and some of us even put spinach in our pizzas. Then our bread base was nearly complete so we pulled them out of the warmer and put oil in it, we also new that it was almost ready because it smelt a little like alcohol. Then we mixed it with some flour, milk powder and a bit of salt and put it back in the warmer with a cloth over it. Next we had to clean while the bread dough was rising so we washed our dishes and wiped our areas till they were spotless. When the dishes and benches were clean we pulled out the dough then needed it into a circle pizza shape then put our toppings on the pizza base then put it in the oven. When it was cooked we pulled it out of the oven and had a taste it was delicious. When we were making the pizzas I thought it was hard making all the measurements but everything else I found easy like cutting and kneading the dough.

Have you ever cooked pizza?
