Seaweed Pizza Dough

The key to a great pizza starts with a good pizza base. Some like it thin and crispy, others thick and fluffy. The base can change the whole look and taste of the pizza, so it’s important to get it right! You can always buy pre-made pizza dough at the store, but if you make and shape the dough yourself, but the results are SO worth the extra effort. Our recipe produces a light and fluffy dough which can be shaped into a thin or thick base – whatever you prefer. The addition of seaweed flakes fortifies the dough with flavour, nutrition and texture. Try it with our pizza recipes, or create your own!
