How to make a veggie supreme pizza
For our veggie supreme pizza, nixed the pepperoni and sausage. But to bring in a meaty flavor, we used our favorite trick: fennel seed! Fennel seed is used in sausage, so when you eat it, it makes your brain think of sausage. Here we’ve sauteed mushrooms with fennel seed, which gives them a savory, meaty flavor. Add to that the standard bell pepper and onion — and a sprinkling of feta cheese to add another hit of savory and salty. It’s so satisfying, and has the vibe of a delivery supreme pizza while being much healthier. The other trick to a great veggie supreme pizza is a sublime pizza sauce. Here we’ve used our Easy Pizza Sauce, made of fire roasted tomatoes and garlic. Using fire roasted tomatoes is key here: it brings a sweet and tangy flavor, versus typical tomatoes which can sometimes taste bitter out of the can. If you can’t find fire roasted tomatoes, use the highest quality tomato you can find. Now, of course the most important part of a great pizza is the dough. We have a few pizza dough recipes that you can make depending on your tastes and equipment. Our Best Pizza Dough is our preferred method; we make it using stand mixer, but you can also knead it by hand. Our Easy Thin Crust method is similar but makes a thinner dough that you roll out. Or, you can try our quick pizza dough made in a food processor.

Pizza stone: A pizza stone is what makes Italian pizza crust crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. Here’s the best pizza stone we recommend, and a bit more on pizza stone care.Pizza peel: A pizza peel is used to slide the pizza onto the hot pizza stone in the oven. We recommend this Standard pizza peel or this Conveyor pizza peel. The conveyor is absolutely worth the extra investment since it makes it very easy to slide the pizza out of the oven.
