Our 5yo wanted a pizza day, and @korayerimez went all out , making handmade dough and coming up with three kinds of pizza: flat bread, calzone, and thick crust 10β³ pizza. Hats off to her babam for top class effort (and yes it was top class delicious!). If it were just me, I wouldβve used store-bought pita bread or tortilla as dough, and let our daughter have pizza day by putting sauce and toppings.
Of course it comes with the territoryβKoray loves food and cooking, and he wonβt cut corners food-wise for as long as he can help it. I wouldnβt cut corners with my paintings eitherβdoing the necessary prep work and choosing the right materials is part of the creative process itself.
