this week's pizza

This week's pizza started with Pecorino Romano grated onto the crust, and everything else piled on top: sauce (the usual - tomato puree with herbs), fresh mozzarella, fava beans, and ground beef seasoned heavily with ras el hanout.

This week's pizza:

Crust: regular homemade.  Thicker than usual because it dried out a little in the fridge, so I couldn't get it as thin as I like.

Sauce: half roasted tomatoes from my mother's garden, half roasted cherry peppers from my garden, pureed and strained, seasoned with Pecorino Romano, fennel pollen, and marjoram.

Cheese: local smoked mozzarella, a few shreds of gouda, Pecorino Romano.

Toppings: Beet greens (blanched, chopped, and under the cheese) and Italian sausage.
