What Tomatoes Should I Use?
While Roma and San Marzano tomatoes are always a favorite of mine, any type of small ripe tomato will work (grape, plum, etc.). If you don’t have small tomatoes, larger ones will work as well. Just make sure you quarter them to fit on your Naan.
Tips for Making Margherita Naan Pizza
- Always use fresh, ripe tomatoes!
- Use quality Naan Bread. Since the Naan is your base, you want to make sure you have a quality bread.
- Fresh mozzarella is where it’s at! You can find fresh mozzarella at almost every grocery store.
- If you don’t have fresh basil, skip it! Dried basil just will not cut it.
