Classic Italian pizza dough

Our family has one delicious tradition - every Saturday night we all bake homemade pizza :-) I knead the dough, my husband rolls it out and our child puts the stuffing. Of course you can buy a ready-baked pizza almost everywhere (especially here in Italy), but believe me, a homemade one tastes completely different. And it's so easy to make! We have tried many recipes for pizza dough and finally we have chosen our favorite one (it was given to us by a pizza chef Pino - a childhood friend of my husband). So, open the flour, take a rolling pin and make this delicious pizza for your family :-)

To make a classic Italian pizza dough you need:

Walnut bread recipe

My family adores homemade bread. That's why I am always looking for new recipes. Some days ago our friends invited us for dinner and treated us with a very original homemade walnut bread. It was so delicious! I took the recipe and baked the bread at home. Here it is for all homemade bread lovers :-)

To make a walnut bread you need:

Perepichka (Ukrainian fried bread)

Perepichka is a slightly salty fried bread. It's an ancient Ukrainian recipe and it always reminds me of my granny :-) When we (my sister, cousin and I) were small, granny used to fry this yummy for us and we were enjoying it with fresh milk. Even today granny loves to ''treat'' us with delicious perepichka and we are always happy for it!  And yet, perepichka is perfect as a base for sandwiches - just cut it in half lengthwise, spread it with some cream cheese, put a slice of a sausage and tomato on top - and the masterpiece is ready! Bon appetit :-)

To make Ukrainian fried bread Perepichka you need:

Ham, olives and cheese stuffed bread

There are a lot of types of focaccia. The one with tomatoes, olives and oregano is typical of the city of Bari where my husband was born:-) It's our family's favorite.

This focaccia has one secret: it is soft inside and crusty outside due to mashed potatoes that you add to the dough.
