Welcome to My Slice of Pizza, a place for me to share my obsession and passion for pizza. Let me tell you a bit about myself and why I decided to create this website.

My name is Martyn, I’m 35 and Pizza is currently a big obsession of mine. I have always enjoyed cooking, the kitchen is a place in the house that I feel very chilled out and relaxed. One of my favourite things to make and eat is Pizza. (You can probably tell that from my belly!)

There is just something about pizza…You must think that to, since that’s why you are here..

There are so many different ways of making pizza dough, each changing the texture and taste of the pizza.

Then there are so many different pizza topping combinations. One of the things I love about pizza is that you can be as adventurous as you want with your toppings.

The crispiness of the dough, the sweet tomato sauce… (Okay, I am getting hungry now…)

As you can see it has become a bit of an obsession of mine, a good one to have though!

How Did This Passion Into Pizza Get Started?

I have always enjoyed pizza, it was often my go to takeaway. It was during the lockdown of 2020, I started experimenting with making my own pizza and caught the bug (The pizza making bug….not the other one!)

I got myself a pizza stone for the oven and was testing out different types of dough recipes. The previous summer I got one of those tall BBQ style pizza ovens for outside and to be honest using it was a massive fail.

Launching the pizza was a disaster and It never seemed to keep the temperature. (Think it made more smoke than pizza)

So I gave up cooking it outside and focused on just making it on the pizza stone indoors.

This was until I came across Ooni. They have a number of pizza ovens and accessories and they looked pretty good. So I thought why not, let’s give it a go….

I got myself the Ooni Fyra, which is their wood burning one and to be honest I was really surprised how good the pizza tasted from it!

Since then I have not looked back!

Now I have been determined to learn as much as I can about Pizza Making. I am learning new techniques and trying out new recipes.

As I said I really caught the pizza making bug and combined with my passion for website creation and social media I decided to start My Slice Of Pizza.

I initially wanted to create the site to share what I have learnt, share recipes I have tried and also provide reviews of products that I have found useful. These hopefully help you find good quality products.

Hopefully you find some of the content of this site useful, please do feel free to reach out to me if you just want to chat about anything pizza related!

Have a slice on me!
