Summer isn't just about sunny days and beach trips; it's also the perfect time to indulge in some culinary experimentation. What better way to embrace the season than with a homemade gourmet pizza?

In this delightful escapade, we dive into the world of creative pizza-making, empowered by the sleek Ooni Koda 12 portable gas pizza ovens. These little culinary wonders can be used in the backyard, and are perfect for weekends away, trips to the beach or even camping.

Here's a recipe that's sure to be a hit at your next outdoor gathering.

Super Simple Dough

Ingredients 
4 cups all-purpose flour
4 teaspoons dry active yeast
1 teaspoon caster sugar
1¾ cups warm water
Pinch of salt
1 tablespoon olive oil

Method
Dissolve the sugar in warm water in a small bowl and sprinkle yeast on top. Mix well and then leave it for 10 minutes until it looks foamy.

Sift the flour and salt into a separate mixing bowl, then pour in the foamy yeast mixture and oil.

Form a dough and knead for 5-8 minutes on a clean, well-floured surface. If it begins to feel too dry, add a teaspoon of water; if it feels too sticky, add a sprinkle of flour.

Place the dough in a greased bowl, and cover with a plastic wrap. Leave to rest in a warm place for about 45 minutes or until doubled in size/

Knead the dough again for 2 minutes and roll out into round pizza bases. Voilà!

Smoked Salmon Pizza

Ingredients
Pizza dough
Olive oil
Fresh mozzarella, sliced
Red onion, sliced
Smoked salmon
Capers
Fresh basil
Lemon zest
Optional: Avocado, sliced – why not give some avocado a go? 

Method
Whether you’re using a traditional, woodfire or gas portable pizza oven, preheat to the highest setting.

Roll the dough on a floured surface and brush with olive oil.

Layer mozzarella, smoked salmon, red onion. Sprinkle on capers, basil and lemon zest.

Bake until golden and bubbly – a few minutes is usually enough for the perfect crust.
