- Can I use frozen shrimp?
- Yes, but thaw and dry them thoroughly with paper towels, otherwise they will soak the pizza.
- When do I add the shrimp?
- If precooked (pink), add only at the end. If raw (gray), they can go in the oven but 5-6 minutes is enough.
Swedish Shrimp & Dill Pizza
Swedes love seafood, and this pizza evokes the flavors of Skagen toast. Fresh, sweet shrimp, aromatic dill, and a creamy base result in a light, elegant pizza. It is important not to overcook the shrimp, or they become rubbery.
