Ciao Reader!
Some of the most respected Italian dishes are built with restraint.
Marinara Pizza is one of them.
No cheese. No excess toppings. Just a well-made dough, vibrant tomatoes, garlic, olive oil, and oregano. When the fundamentals are right, nothing else is needed.
This week, I’m sharing my Marinara Pizza recipe. It’s bold, aromatic, and deeply rooted in Neapolitan tradition. Simple ingredients. High heat. Honest flavor.
Why this pizza belongs in your kitchen

From my kitchen to yours
With Marinara Pizza, quality matters more than quantity. Use tomatoes you trust, slice the garlic thin, and don’t drown the dough. A light hand lets every ingredient speak.
How Italians serve it
Marinara pizza is served hot, sliced at the table, and eaten immediately. A drizzle of olive oil after baking and a pinch of oregano are all it needs.
