What tomato sauce to use on a Portuguese cod pizza?
You can use the tomato sauce that you like the most, lately I’ve been using PASSATA sauce (from Mutti) and I like it because it “wets” the dough a little and that helps. This sauce is sold in all major stores (CARREFOUR, ALCAMPO, EL CORTE INGLÉS)
What cheese to use for this Portuguese pizza recipe?
If you prefer to use mozzarella, because it is a cheese with a lot of water, you can put it in at the same time as the sauce, so you will have time for the water to evaporate. If it is a cheese like Tetila that melts so quickly, it is better to put it a few minutes before the end of baking. Here you can see how to prepare and stretch the pizza dough in the video: If you’re in a hurry and can’t afford the time needed to prepare a cold dough, I invite you to see THIS RECIPE dough in 30 minutes.
