Cherry tomatoes, mozzarella, red onion, basil, balsamic vinegar. It was thick and messy enough to eat with a fork and knife, but damn it was delicious.

    Fair enough, and good on ya for looking for ways to improve! 🍻🤘🏼

    Ninja edit: try salting the tomato halves for an hour or so beforehand. I ran a small pizza joint back in the day, and I’m happy to give some ideas if you need 'em.

      That’s a really good idea, and I appreciate it! Thank you. I considered salting the tomatoes, but the whole thing was so spur-of-the-moment that I didn’t really have time to let them rest.

      This was my first time trying the dish and there’s definitely room to improve.

        Tomatoes, much like eggplant and mushrooms, are notoriously soggy pizza ingredients without some forethought, so that’s a good lesson learned. 🍻
