Pizza with Nori..mmm!

   A slightly dull start to the day today as no jackdaws to remove from our house- no, I didn't mean that- only joking!
  We had a friend over and had one of our favourite meals-pizza!
  It takes about an hour from starting the dough to getting the pizza out of the oven. That includes making the dough, making the bases, making the tomato sauce, slicing mushrooms and olives, slicing or grating dairy -free cheese, spreading the tomato sauce, sprinkling the mushrooms, olives, capers and herbs, and cooking for just under ten minutes.
   It doesn't take more than a few minutes more to increase the quantities and make three or four extra pizzas that can be frozen to be a really quick meal for another day, so it's well worth doing.
  On some of the pizzas we put one of our favourite toppings-nori! This seaweed, also known as laver, is often used as a wrap for sushi but adds a lovely taste of the sea to other dishes when crumbled into soups or stews or salads or sprinkled on noodles or pizza and it's also lovely straight out of the packet as a snack.
   Nori contains high proportions of iodine and carotene and is also a good source of iron and calcium, potassium, magnesium and iron. The good news is that we'll be selling nori in our shop veganation.co.uk , opening soon. Enjoy your nori, but keep a mirror handy because it can stick to your teeth!!!
