Kimchi pizza

Kimchi and melted cheese are a fantastic combination. Drain the kimchi well and add it only near the end of baking.

Ingredients

1 ball pizza dough, about 300 g
3 tbsp tomato sauce
1–2 tbsp kimchi brine
150 g mozzarella, drained and torn
120 g kimchi, well drained
Optional toppings: fuet, beef salami, mushrooms, red onion or spring onion, and chilies
Optional finishes: sesame oil, sesame, or hot honey

01
Heat the oven and a pizza stone or inverted tray at its highest setting for at least 30 minutes.
02
Mix the tomato sauce with the kimchi brine.
03
Stretch the dough on baking paper and spread it with a thin layer of sauce.
04
Add the mozzarella and any other toppings you like, but keep the kimchi aside and do not overload the centre.
05
Bake until the pizza is almost done. Add the well-drained kimchi for only the final 1–2 minutes to warm it through. Finish with sesame oil, sesame, or hot honey if you like.
