Pizza Capricciosa Recipes

PIZZA CAPRICCIOSA

Steps:

• Knead flour and water until you get a soft dough, then knead in first the yeast, and then the salt and the olive oil.
• Let the dough rest for 10 minutes, then turn it over on a table and knead it for a few minutes.
• Place the dough in an oiled bowl which you then need to close with a lid or cover with a plastic wrap. Refrigerate for 24 hours.
• The following day, on a floured surface, stretch the dough to the desired shape, taking care that you leave a raised 2 cm (0.8-inch) rim on the outer edge of the dough.
• Then, spread the tomato sauce over the dough, and bake it in a 250°C/480°F oven for 10 minutes.
• Take the pizza from the oven and top it with chopped mozzarella, ham, mushrooms, and artichokes, then bake for another 10 minutes.
• Before serving, drizzle the pizza with olive oil.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425.
• Dust the dough with the flour or cornmeal and stretch out to a 12-13" pizza. Place the dough on a pizza tray and pierce it with the tines of a fork. Drizzle with EVOO, season with a little salt, and bake 10 minutes.
• Remove the crust from the oven and top with the tomato sauce, basil, a thin layer of the mozzarella, the mushrooms, and artichokes.
• Bake another 10 minutes, or until the cheese bubbles and the crust is crisp. In the last 5 minutes of baking, add the prosciutto, peas, and eggs and another drizzle of EVOO.
