Pepperoni Pizza
Description
Homemade baking for tea. Why does this recipe have such a name? Pizza got its name from the name of the sausage. In this case it refers to pizza with round pieces of smoked sausage called “Pepperoni”. It is very difficult to buy such sausage in the CIS. It can be replaced with pork sausage, similar to salami. I offer my simple recipe, it can be served with tea or coffee.
