Ukrainian-style Roman pizza to serve with halushky, sauce and juicy homemade tomatoes
If you add our homemade tomatoes to the traditional Roman pizza, as well as a flavorful sauce to the halushky with herbs and cheese, the dish can already be considered half Ukrainian. The peculiarity of such baking is that the dough turns out to be very puffy and soft. The whole secret is in the starter.
The idea of cooking Roman pizza in Ukrainian style is published on the Instagram page of food blogger Tatyana Dudka (stilynavkus).
