Admit it, we all love pizza. This Italy originated mouth watering food has touched almost everybody's heart at least once in their life time. The modern pizza was originally made in Naples and by today around 3 billions of pizzas are sold per year in United States.
As a kid I always wanted to eat Pizza but a Pizzahut was not nearby. Therefore we went to the nearby supermarket to buy pizza bread and cheese to make homemade pizza. After few years a new pizzahut was opened in our area and I was not happy with their service at all. We received half burned pizza from that outlet and my impression about pizzahut was ruined. Years later one of my friends literally dragged me in the Havelock city pizza hut branch and that pizza we had that day was so good. So far I have tried Pizza huts Cheese and Onion, Cheese and tomato, Cheese lovers, Veg pizza with paneer, Hawaiian and Pizza Margarita.
I enjoyed their food during my stay at Colombo 03 last year and after I moved I recently, I started craving for pizza again. I went to supermarket again but no pizza bread to buy there. Unfortunately they have run out of stock. So I thought Why not? I should try making them myself. Pizza dough is the one difficult to make, topping is very easy. So let me tell you my secret to a pizza tastier than pizza huts pizza. After trying a few times I found a perfect pizza dough recipe.Trust me this is the best pizza recipe you will ever find.
