  5. Fold the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead gently by hand for around five minutes or until smooth.
  6. Spread some flour on kitchen bench before rolling, in order to prevent sticking.

Preparing Gocha Supreme Pizza

Turn your oven on to 450-500 degrees or more and preheat for at least 30 minutes.

Spread out the dough in a rough circle, on a floured board or surface.

If you are using a baking pan, then create the pizza in that.

Open the sauce container, and start to spread the Tomato Sauce. Spread the Tomato Sauce around the whole base, taking care to leave a gap at edges.

Add the ingredients in size order, from large to small.

Cheese gets added last.

The toppings to add to this pizza are;

I find this pizza mouthwatering on its own, or why not enjoy it with a simple side dish?

The pizza should take roughly 15 minutes to cook, adjust time to cook to personal taste.

About Onion

Ancient Egyptians saw onions as a symbol of eternal life because of the circular layers. Farmed and eaten for at least 5,000 years, Onions have been used as medicine, food and even helped in Egyptian mummification.
The three most common onion colors are white, red and yellow. Onions are easy to grow, store and are cheap and full of flavour, making them very popular across the world. China consumes nearly 25% of the world’s onions every year.

Pizza Tools

When making Gocha Supreme Pizza, I always recommend that you use what you have already, and avoid spending a ton of money. My recommended basic pizza tool list is…

Dough Mixer

OK, so this isn’t vital, but if you make enough pizza, breads, etc it is worth investing in a good mixer for your dough.

Chef Apron

OK, not really pizza related, but a good chef apron makes me feel the part when I am making my pizzas. I’d probably wear a chef hat if I got one too!

Dough Containers

Having quality, air tight dough storage containers is a must.

 

Goat’s Cheese

Goat’s Cheese is often called by its French name, Chèvre, which means goat. The distinctive character of Goat’s Cheese comes from capric acid, a flavourful fatty acid that promotes good intestinal bacteria in humans.

Because of its low lactose content, Goat’s Cheese is a fantastic choice of cheese for people with lactose intolerance.
