- Why did the egg run everywhere?
- Egg white can be very runny. Crack it into a small bowl first, and gently slide it onto the pizza, or use a spoon to make a small depression for it in the cheese.
Pizza Bismark
The pizza was named after Chancellor Otto von Bismarck, who supposedly loved eggs on every dish. This dish is a complete breakfast (ham, egg, bread) in pizza form. The key is timing: the white needs to cook, but the yolk must remain creamy to serve as a sauce for the bites.

Instructions
1
✓
Preheat the oven to 220°C. Roll out the dough, spread with sauce, sprinkle with oregano.
Tip: The oven should be hot so the egg white sets quickly.
2
✓
Add the ham and mozzarella, but leave 4 small "nests" (depressions) among the toppings for the eggs.
Tip: The nest prevents the egg from sliding off the pizza during baking.
3
✓
Bake the pizza for 8-10 minutes, then pull out of the oven. Crack the eggs into the depressions.
Tip: If you put the egg on at the beginning, it will bake hard. Added at halfway, it will be perfect.

✓
Return for 3-5 minutes until the white turns white but the yolk is still wobbly. Season the egg with salt and pepper, and serve with basil.
Tip: The yolk has a higher heat capacity, so it solidifies slower than the white, but you must keep an eye on it.
