VIDEO: Michael Symon Honors his Mother with Special Mother’s Day Recipe for Pizza

Did you know that Borgata’s restaurant Angeline is named after chef/partner Michael Symon’s mother?  This year, Michael won’t be able to spend time with his mother on Mother’s Day, but he’s prepared a special dish in honor of her! He’s sharing “Mom’s Pizza” recipe with all of you! It’s a Sicilian-style pizza that is perfect for surprising your mother with on Mother’s Day AND easy to make at home!

Here are some tips from the Chef while preparing the pizza:

• • If you have bread flour, use that (it makes the crust crispy), but regular flour is fine.
  • You can mix the dough either by hand or with a stand mixer.  If you mix it by hand, it will take a little longer.
  • Use a simple tomato sauce—if you make your own sauce, you don’t have to cook it.
  • If you’re using fresh mozzarella, make sure it is not too wet.
  • The Chef puts the sauce all the way to the edge of the dough to get crispy edges.
