Treat your ingredients with care...
- Anchovy fillets — If you prefer a milder flavor, you can soak the anchovy fillets in milk for 10 minutes before using them. This will help reduce their saltiness while still adding a hint of umami to the pizza.
Tips & Tricks
- For a crispier crust, preheat your baking sheet or pizza stone in the oven before placing the rolled-out dough on it.
- If you prefer a stronger garlic flavor, you can roast the garlic cloves before slicing them and adding them to the pizza.
- Feel free to add other Mediterranean toppings such as olives, capers, or sun-dried tomatoes to enhance the flavors.

Serve the Sardenara Pizza hot, straight from the oven. Cut it into slices and enjoy it as a main course or as a delightful appetizer for gatherings.
