In season 2 episode 3 of Southern at Heart, called Pizza Party, host Damaris Phillips is throwing a pizza party for her friends. With her Southern twist, she prepares three different types of pizzas: a classic Margherita, a BBQ chicken and bacon pizza, and a veggie pizza with goat cheese and balsamic glaze.
Damaris starts with the dough, making it from scratch and letting it rise while she preps the toppings. She then shows her viewers step-by-step how to prepare each pizza, from spreading the sauce and cheese to layering on the toppings.
For the Margherita pizza, Damaris opts for fresh basil and homemade tomato sauce. She explains that it's important to use fresh ingredients, as it makes all the difference in the taste of the pizza.
Next up, Damaris prepares her BBQ chicken and bacon pizza. She starts by cooking the chicken in a skillet with BBQ sauce and seasoning, then adds crumbled bacon on top before adding it to the pizza dough. To finish it off, she drizzles some extra BBQ sauce on top.
For the veggie pizza, Damaris uses a unique combination of toppings, including artichokes, red onion, and goat cheese. She also adds arugula on top after the pizza comes out of the oven, which adds a peppery kick and a fresh crunch.
Throughout the episode, Damaris shares her tips and tricks with viewers, such as using cornmeal on the bottom of the pizza to prevent it from sticking to the baking sheet. She also emphasizes the importance of having fun in the kitchen and not stressing over perfection.
To complete the pizza party, Damaris makes a simple and refreshing citrus salad with orange and grapefruit segments, dressed with honey and lime juice. She invites her friends over to enjoy the meal and shares some laughs while they enjoy the delicious pizzas.
Overall, the episode is a fun and informative guide to creating unique and delicious pizzas with a Southern twist. Damaris' personality shines through as she shares her passion for cooking and shows viewers how to enjoy themselves in the kitchen.
