Pizza Diavola translates to ‘devil’s pizza’. Given the spiciness of this pizza, it’s a well-suited name! We’ve used spicy salami in our version, but for a really devilish pizza we recommend adding some 'nduja sausage. 'Nduja is an extremely spicy, pork salami, similar to the French andouille sausage, which was introduced to the Calabrian region of Italy in the 13th century. The spreadable salami gets its fiery taste from roasted hot red peppers and is traditionally eaten spread on bread or alongside cheese.
Psyllium, or psyllium husks are the ground husks of the seeds of Plantago ovata, an herbaceous plant. It gives gluten-free doughs more volume and elasticity, contributing to a spongier crumb texture. It acts on doughs in the same way as guar gum or xanthan gum with better results. Not suitable for people allergic to egg proteins or nuts. Never buy in bulk (pulses, cereals, spices, seeds, flours, etc.) due to risk of cross contamination.

Place 1500 g water into mixing bowl and place Varoma into position. Secure Varoma lid and steam 23-30 min/Varoma/speed 1, depending on the size of your puddings.
