Prepare your pizza dough ahead of time. Our guide to making the perfect Classic Pizza Dough covers everything you need to know.

Strain the tomatoes to remove excess liquid. Transfer to a bowl and crush the tomatoes to a pulp with your fingers. Add the remaining ingredients and mix well. Cover and refrigerate for at least an hour.

Fire up your Ooni Pizza Oven. Aim for 500˚C (950˚F) on the stone baking board inside. You can check the temperature inside your Ooni quickly and easily using the Ooni Infrared Thermometer.

Using a small amount of flour, dust your Ooni pizza peel. Stretch the pizza dough ball out and lay it out on your pizza peel.

Spread 3-4 tbsp of sauce evenly over the base. Top with an even layer of mozzarella cheese, followed by slices of Milano salami, and finally provolone cheese.

Slide the pizza off the peel and into the oven. Cook for 1-2 minutes, turning regularly. Once cooked, transfer the pizza to a serving board.

To make a mortadella rose, roll each slice into a thin tube. Pinch one end, and fold down the layers at the top to form a layered rose shape. Top the pizza with the mortadella roses, followed by 2-3 sweet pickled peppers, gherkin slices, and a couple dollops of Miscela Explosiva. (But be warned, this stuff is hot!) Finish with a handful of fresh rocket and light drizzle of balsamic vinegar.
