INGREDIENTS
- 1 recipe Homemade Pizza Dough
- 1/2 cup pizza sauce
- 8 ounces burrata cheese
- 1 3-ounce package prosciutto
- handful of fresh basil, fried or torn into pieces
- red pepper flakes
INSTRUCTIONS
- Pre-heat your oven to 500 degrees.
- Thirty minutes before cooking the pizza, put your pizza stone in the oven.
- Stretch out your pizza dough using your hands in a circular motion, then lay it on a flat surface and flatten it out using a rolling pin. If you have a pizza peel, sprinkle some flour on it and place the stretched out dough on the peel.
- Once your dough is flat and ready to be heated, use a spoon to spread the pizza sauce all around the dough leaving a little bit for the crust.
- Pop your pizza peel in the oven and slide it over the stone for ten minutes.
- After ten minutes, pull out the pizza and sprinkle the creamy burrata on top of the pie.
- Put your pizza back in the oven for another 3-4 minutes.
- When the cheese is just starting to melt, take it out and top with prosciutto and the fried basil, salt, and red pepper flakes. Cut into 6-8 slices and serve immediately.
Homemade Pizza Dough
INGREDIENTS
- 1 cup plus 1 tablespoon 00 flour
- 1 cup plus 1 tablespoon and 2 teaspoons all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon fine sea salt
- 3/4 teaspoon active dry yeast
- 1 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil
INSTRUCTIONS
- In a large bowl, combine flours and salt.
- In a small mixing bowl, stir together about 1 cup lukewarm tap water, the yeast and the olive oil. Pour it into flour mixture. Knead with your hands until just combined, approximately 2-3 minutes, then let the mixture rest for 15 minutes.
- Knead the rested dough for 3 minutes until smooth. Cut the dough into 2 equal pieces and shape each into a ball. Place on a heavily floured surface, cover with dampened clean kitchen towel, and let rest and rise for 3 to 4 hours at room temperature. Alternatively, if you're making the dough a day before use, you can let it rest and rise for 8 to 24 hours in the refrigerator.
- To make pizza, make sure the dough is at room temperature and place each dough ball on a heavily floured surface and use your fingers to stretch it, then your hands to shape it into rounds or squares. Top and bake.
