On your blog, share a list of the ingredients that you need to make this food. You must type out the list of ingredients yourself (and not simply copy and paste it from a website) to earn full points.

One of my favourite foods are pizza

This is how to make it:

1. For the sauce
2. You add olive oil into a large skillet over medium heat.
3. Add onions and sauté until it is soft
4. Stir in garlic and cook 
5. Stir in pureed tomatoes, Italian seasoning, parmesan cheese, brown sugar and red pepper flakes.
6. Slowly stir in chicken broth.
7. Light boil it and then reduce heat to barely a simmer.
8. Cook until liquid is reduced to your liking.
9. Taste and adjust seasoning 
10. To make the crust, in a small bowl or glass, add 1 teaspoon sugar to very warm water.
11. Stir in yeast and let sit for 10-15 minutes to allow the yeast to proof.
12. When yeast is ready add mixture to a large bowl.
13. Stir in flour, salt, remaining sugar, oil, Italian seasoning and parmesan cheese.
14. When dough forms, place dough on a lightly floured surface and kneed gently with oiled hands.
15. Press the dough into a lightly greased 12-inch pizza pan. Be sure to keep your hands oiled with olive oil to soften the dough and make it easier to press out.
16. Cover dough with plastic wrap and place in a warm location for 30 minutes. (see note)
17. Preheat oven to 425 F.
18. When ready to serve, spread sauce over pizza.
19. Top with cheese and toppings.
20. Bake for 12 minutes or until the crust in the center of the pizza is fluffy and fully cooked.
21. Garnish with fresh basil if desired.
22. Slice and serve!
