Ingredients
- 1 Alimenta Pizza Base with crust
- 80g red cherry tomatoes (cherry or datterino)

Proceedings
Step-by-step Procedure
Preparing the ingredients
Thoroughly wash the red and yellow tomatoes, dry them, and cut them in half. Place them in a bowl and season with a pinch of salt and a light drizzle of extra virgin olive oil.
Cut the fiordilatte mozzarella into cubes or shred it by hand, letting it drain in a colander for a few minutes to remove excess whey and prevent it from making the pizza soggy during baking.
Topping the pizza
Take your Alimenta Pizza Base with crust and place it on a baking tray or directly on parchment paper. Evenly distribute the well-drained fiordilatte mozzarella over the entire inner surface.
Next, arrange the red and yellow tomatoes alternately to create a nice splash of color, taking care not to cover the crust, which should rise freely and turn golden during baking.
The final bake
Finish everything with a drizzle of EVO oil. Bake in a preheated oven at the highest temperature (220°C, fan-assisted, recommended), placing the pizza in the medium-upper part of the oven.
Bake for about 5 minutes, until the mozzarella is perfectly melted and stringy and the crust is puffed up and golden. Remove from the oven, immediately top with fresh basil leaves, and serve piping hot.
