NY STYLE PIZZA WITH ARUGULA, SAUSAGE AND CHEESE #RAGU

Steps:

• 1. Make a starter: mix together 1/2 cup warm water, 1/2 cup all-purpose flour, one teaspoon sugar and 1/2 teaspoon yeast. Cover and let rest for 20-30 minutes.
• 2. Add 1/4 cup of water to the starter, rest of flour, salt and olive oil. Mix together thoroughly with a wooden spoon. Transfer on a well floured surface and knead for about 10 minutes dusting with flour as needed until dough is elastic and no longer sticky. Put the dough in a deep glass or plastic dish greased with olive oil. Cover and let the dough rise for about one hour until it doubles in volume.
• 3. Meanwhile, chop sausage into small pieces and cook in a skillet over medium high heat for about 5-7 minutes until browned. Toast pine nuts and set aside.
• 4. Put pizza stone in the top oven rack, set the oven on broiler setting and preheat the oven for about 20 minutes.
• 5. Punch down the dough and roll it out on a lightly floured surface to 1/3 inch thickness, thinner in the middle and thicker on the outer edges. Flute the edges slightly. Drizzle the crust with olive oil, then spread the pasta sauce all around the crust, top with sausage, arugula leaves and two cheeses. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Put pizza on a foil paper lightly greased with olive oil and dusted with breadcrumbs. Transfer on a hot baking stone. Bake for 2 minutes on broiler setting, turn the heat down to 500F and bake for 5-7 more minutes until crust becomes lightly charred and golden brown. Remove from oven and sprinkle with toasted pine nuts. Cool slightly on a rack before slicing.

SAUSAGE PIZZA WITH ARUGULA AND GRAPES

Steps:

• Put a pizza stone or an inverted baking sheet on the lowest rack of the oven and preheat to 450 degrees F. Place a piece of parchment on another inverted baking sheet and brush with 2 teaspoons olive oil. Stretch and lightly pat the pizza dough into a 10-by-14-inch rectangle on the parchment. Prick the dough with a fork everywhere but the edges. Brush with the remaining 2 teaspoons olive oil. Slide the dough (on the parchment) onto the hot stone or baking sheet and bake until lightly browned on the bottom, about 8 minutes.
• Season the ricotta with 1/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Remove the crust from the oven and spread the ricotta on top. Sprinkle with the thyme and top with the Cambozola, grapes and sausage. Slide back onto the hot stone or baking sheet and continue baking until the sausage is cooked through and the crust is golden, about 10 minutes.
• Remove from the oven and immediately scatter the shallot rings on top. Drizzle with the honey and top with the arugula.

PIZZA WITH MUSHROOMS, GOAT CHEESE, ARUGULA AND WALNUTS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees with a baking stone inside, if available. Roll out the dough to fit a 12- to 14-inch pizza pan.
• Heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil over medium-high heat in a large, heavy skillet, and add the mushrooms. Cook, stirring, until the mushrooms are tender and moist, four to five minutes. Season with salt and pepper, and remove from the heat.
• Crumble the goat cheese into a bowl, add the walnuts and lightly toss together.
• Brush the dough with 2 teaspoons of the remaining olive oil, and top with the mushrooms. Sprinkle on the thyme, and place in the oven. Bake 10 minutes. Remove from the oven, sprinkle the goat cheese and walnuts over the crust, and return to the oven for five to 10 minutes, until the crust is nicely browned and the cheese has softened. Remove from the heat.
• Toss the arugula with the remaining teaspoon of olive oil, the balsamic vinegar and the walnut oil. Scatter it over the pizza, and serve.

PASTA WITH SAUSAGE AND ARUGULA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°F. Toss onions, fennel, and 2 Tbsp. oil on a rimmed baking sheet; season with salt and pepper. Spread out into a single layer. Pinch sausage into small pieces and scatter around onions and fennel. Roast until vegetables and sausage are cooked through and well browned, 25-30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, cook pasta in a large pot of boiling salted water, stirring occasionally, until al dente. Drain, reserving 1 cup pasta cooking liquid.
• Combine vegetables, sausage, and pasta in a large bowl. Add lemon zest, lemon juice, remaining 4 Tbsp. oil, and 1/4 cup reserved pasta cooking liquid and toss to coat, adding more pasta cooking liquid if needed, until sauce comes together and coats pasta. Toss in arugula.
• Divide pasta among plates and top with Parmesan. Season with more salt and pepper.
