It's hard to find someone who doesn't like pizza. Fans of tasty food are unlikely to be able to refuse baking for a long time, especially if we are talking about this open Italian cake with a juicy, fragrant filling. Addiction to such food makes it very difficult diet, unless it is a question of the power system developed by Pierre Ducane. He allowed the inclusion in the diet of even this hearty dish, but only if it is cooked according to special recipes. Pizza Ducano almost does not contain fats and carbohydrates, but the taste is no less pleasant than the traditional.
Cooking Features
Diet pizza that complies with the principles of nutrition, developed by Dr. Ducan, is prepared according to certain rules. This concerns both the dough and the filling. Taking up the cooking, you need to remember a few points.
- Dukan Diet is one of the protein; foods that contain a lot of carbohydrates and fats are not used for cooking or are added in small quantities, and even then only in the final stages of the diet. Flour, sugar, fatty dairy products, butter should not be consumed. Vegetable oil is allowed in meager doses. Cheese in the early stages of the diet is prohibited, later this product is allowed only if its fat content does not exceed 20%. But in this case too much pressure on him is not recommended. Choosing a pizza recipe, do not forget about the restrictions in force at a particular stage of the diet.
- Pizza dough can be cooked on low-fat kefir or curd, milk or yogurt. At the first, the most hard stage of the diet, called “Attack”, you can thicken the dough with bran, skimmed milk powder. In the future, for this purpose, you can use corn starch. For the filling in the first stage, use lean meat or diet ham, tomato paste without salt and sugar, specially prepared mayonnaise. At subsequent stages, it can be supplemented with vegetables, tofu, low-fat cheese.
- Some Dukan pizza recipes suggest the use of a sweetener. Before the introduction of the dough should be diluted in a teaspoon of warm water.
- When cooking without butter, pizza can burn, it is difficult to remove. Use of a silicone mold or a rug from the same material will help prevent this. Parchment paper sprinkled with chopped bran will also help. If you decide to use butter, apply it in a pan or a baking dish in a thin layer using a cooking brush.
