Homemade pizza!!!! No yeast, and counting firsts...

Hello there!

I'm beginning to wonder: if every cloud has a silver lining, then long breaks from posting definitely come with a huge bangs of enthusiasm when I start writing.

How are you and how has your own food is journey been so far? Mine has been awesome, in between moving house, changing occupations and relocating... boy, do I have a lot to type about in the days ahead.

For this post, I will be sharing how I made my first homemade pizza! Yes, my very own homemade pizza from scratch. A totally delightful experience for me, I made my own pizza dough and created my very own topping, Blazing Hot Wonder!

Since I get to give you my secrets in these posts, guess what? The Blazing Hot Wonder didn't start out with that name at all, or even with its deliciously fiery taste. It was intended to be savoury-sweet and tasty for sure, but I underestimated the small paprika-like pepper I added that ended up being hotter than any cayenne pepper I had ever used. And voilà! The Blazing Hot Wonder was born. 😄 So if you're not a fan of yor tongue being set on peppery fire, you could omit the pepper from your ingredients when anything it out. The sweet peppers will manage to give you the pepper flavouring effects without the intense 'heat'. I guess it comes to show that pizzas can have any toppings you want and many inventions are just common mistakes made viable in some way. Isn't that awesome to remember?

Ok, back to the pizza... Another first this pizza brought was my first foodie recipe video. It started out as a few shots and some fun with Google Photos and then ended up with some Photo Grid editting and the full recipe. 😃 My special special thanks to Ellen Mimi Owusu for the encouragement to create the video, and as you can see it has left me perpetually pleased as punch 😁.

So today, I won't be writing or posting pictures as much as I normally do with our blog posts here at Ndudu tales. Instead, I will be leaving you with my first homemade video showing how I made my first homemade pizza (both in pizza crust and pizza topping)! Do relax, enjoy your viewing and don't forget to give us feedback by leaving a comment below or reaching out to us any other way you are comfortable with. Because guess what, we'll only eventually get better at this and would love to have you on board!

This pizza was made without yeast and inspired by the following recipes that taught me how to make the dough and the passata (the tomato stew like base that comes with most pizzas).

You would notice these in the credits of the video.

And now, my long awaited moment, and hopefully yours as well... Lol... Ofosua's first homemade pizza recipe... #drumroll
