This was last night’s dinner.  I made my usual sourdough pizza dough following the recipe that the PieKing shared with us for the pizza CB.

This pizza had homemade fresh pizza sauce for which I used Peter Reinhart’s recipe from his book Artisan Breads Everyday.  In order to keep the crust crispy and avoid sogginess from the sauce, I first put a layer of prosciutto then the sauce.  This was followed by mozzarella cheese, onions, pineapple, roasted red peppers and once out of the oven a bit more prosciutto.  

This definitely made a tasty pizza so long as you like pineapple which we do.

nothing beats the savory flavor prosciutto fat gives. Putting a layer of prosciutto at the bottom kills two birds with one stone: preventing a soggy crust while adding amazing flavor. What a fabulous idea! 

Nice crust and toppings. Some insist on banning pineapples from pizza but I'm rather open-minded. Anything goes as long as it makes tasty pizza :)
