Recipe, National Pizza Day
Pizza With Tasty Sourdough Makes an Easy Artisan Crust

Happy National Pizza Day!
When we first moved into our house, our neighborhood was active. Children ran from door to door collecting their friends for Nerf battles and water gun fights. Parents sat outside and watched their children, sharing an adult version of child’s play.
One of my neighbors, Sue Groffie, inspired me with her multiple talents. Every New Year’s Eve, Sue threw the best adult party. She is very artistic and crafty. In fact, I commissioned her to create this watercolor of the Writer’s Museum in Edinburgh.
We socialized during yard sales and block parties, and she shared some great recipes that I have used frequently throughout the years. Her pizza dough recipe became a favorite at my son’s birthday parties. The guests would each get a small ball of dough to toss, top and bake.
During the pandemic, yeast was nowhere to be found on store shelves. Canned pizza crust couldn’t be bought either. I adapted her delicious pizza dough recipe to use sourdough starter. I thought I would share it just in time for National Pizza Day, today, February 9.
