The Piller’s Deli Pizza is an overnight pizza dough, hand-tossed and sauced with pizza sauce and topped with the Piller’s Sub Pac classic deli meats and pizzeria cheese blend. Optionally with a garlic brushed crust seasoned with everything bagel seasoning.
Piller’s Deli Pizza Ingredients
Overnight Pizza Dough, Pizza Pasata Sauce, Pillers Sub Pac Deli Meats, Mozzarella Cheese.
Overnight pizza dough
Prepare the overnight pizza dough recipe the day before at about the same time you plan on making pizzas the next day. When you are about 4 hours away from making the pizzas, portion out the dough and shape into individual dough balls to the desired size based on what you will be making.
Pizza Sauce
This is passata pizza sauce loaded with extra basil and some oregano. If you like your pizza sauce a bit zesty, add a splash of red wine vinegar and/or lemon juice to taste. For a more peppery flavor, add black pepper to taste. Add sugar for sweetness.
Piller’s Deli Pizza Toppings
The Pillers Deli Pizza Toppings uses the Piller’s sub pac trio. This contains 15 slices each of pepperoni, ham, and luncheon meat. You only need about 5 slices each for one pizza. You can lay them down as whole slices or chop them into quarters or slices to get more even coverage.
Pizzeria Cheese
Pizzeria cheese is a beautiful blend of Saputo’s mozzarella cheese and provolone at a ratio of 3:1. Run the Saputo mozza cheese through a food processor and empty it out. Follow with a block of provolone cheese. Then combine in a freezer bag 3 parts mozzarella cheese and 1 part provolone. Shake the bag around to distribute the cheese evenly and keep it in the freezer to top your pizzas at any time.
You can just use straight mozzarella. Just be sure it’s a good quality mozzarella cheese like Saputo’s.
I recently purchased the below mozzarella cheese at Canada Wholesale because of the deal. It’s a good price at about $18.00 CAD at the time I purchased it. But it’s not as good as the Saputo and provolone cheese blend or even Saputo’s mozzarella cheese.
Everything Bagel Crusted Pizza
Adding a bagel-crusted pizza to any pizza is easy. All you have to do is have some garlic butter or garlic sauce or even just some EVOO to brush the crust so that the seasoning will stick. Then sprinkle everything bagel seasoning on the crust after the pizza comes out of the oven. While I use my proprietary blend of Maritime Bagel Seasoning, any everything bagel seasoning will work.
