For me the combination of sweet, briny olives with salty anchovies is rustic delight. The intense pops of flavour in each mouthful rise and fall with milky melted mozzarella and a rich spiced tomato sauce. It’s a moorish pizza that leaves you guessing with each bite.
Method
Preheat your pizza oven to 350˚C. Roll out your pizza dough and spread with a ladle of spicy tomato sauce. Then spread out a good handful of olives and peppers.
