A thin, crispy yet very tasty pizza with anchovy fillets (pickled anchovies).

The day before, knead the dough ingredients into a smooth dough and let it rise for 4 hours. Knead the dough briefly, flour it, wrap it in cling film, and let it rise overnight in the refrigerator. Roll out the dough into a 32 cm circle and roll up the edges with some of the cheese to create a 28 cm pizza. Place it on a greased pizza baking tray and cover with a damp cloth. Let it rise in a warm place for 2 hours. For the topping, drain the tomatoes well, gently squeezing them a little if necessary. Roughly chop the tomatoes and mix with the ingredients up to the olive oil. Wash the bell peppers and cut them lengthwise into thin strips. Optionally, remove a few thin strips from an onion. Remove the anchovies from the jar or can and soak them in water for 1 minute, pat them dry, and set aside. Halve the salami slices. Slightly pierce the base with a fork and pre-bake in a hot oven at 220 °C (top heat). As soon as the dough begins to brown, remove it from the oven. Reduce the oven temperature to 250°C (480°F). Spread the tomato paste over the base, sprinkle with the mountain cheese, top with the remaining ingredients, and drizzle with olive oil. Bake in a hot oven at medium heat until the cheese is completely melted and begins to bubble. Remove from the oven and place on a round wooden board. Cut the pizza into 8 slices, serve hot on a wooden board, and enjoy in portions.
