I don’t do swirls—I think it looks silly—so I advise lattice. If you’re worried about salmonella, I’ve temped yolks at just under 140°F (60°C) on the surface of a hot pizza. They are runny but they are cooked. You can easily scale this recipe up by adding another egg for each additional pizza you’re making.

Ingredients

  • 1 egg
  • 2 small pinches sea salt, 1 for whites and

Method

  1. Separate the whites and yolks into 2 small bowls.
  2. Whisk the salt into the white and transfer it to a squeeze bottle.
  3. Repeat with the yolk in a separate bottle. Keep the bottles in the fridge until it’s time to cook pizza.
