Garlic Rosemary Pizza Bianca Recipes

Steps:

• Position the oven rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 450 degrees F.
• Roll out the dough on a lightly floured work surface to 1/2-inch thick. Transfer the dough to a heavy large baking sheet. Using a fork, pierce the dough all over. Drizzle the oil over the dough. Sprinkle with the thyme and salt. Bake until golden, about 15 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Place garlic and rosemary in a heatproof dish, and drizzle with oil. Cover, and roast until garlic has softened, about 40 minutes. Transfer garlic to a plate. Pour garlic-rosemary oil through a sieve into a bowl, discard rosemary, and let cool.
• Meanwhile, put flour, 2 1/2 teaspoons salt, the yeast, and water into the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the dough hook. Mix on low speed 5 minutes, scraping down sides of bowl as needed. Gradually raise speed to high, kneading until dough is shiny, sticky, and elastic, 15 to 20 minutes. Transfer dough to a large oiled glass bowl, and cover with plastic. Let rise in a warm, draft-free place until tripled in bulk, about 2 1/2 hours. (Dough will be light and airy.)
• Turn out dough onto a well-floured work surface. With floured hands, turn dough over a couple of times, and divide in half. Working with 1 portion at a time, stretch into a 14-by-5-inch rectangle, and starting at 1 short end, roll into an oval log. Brush logs generously with garlic-rosemary oil, using about 2 tablespoons per log. Sprinkle each with 3/4 teaspoon salt. Let rise in a warm, draft-free place for 45 minutes.
• Put a 14-inch pizza stone into oven, and heat oven to 500 degrees.
• Sprinkle 2 tablespoons cornmeal over a pizza peel, and lay a piece of dough on top. Using your fingers, dent and stretch dough in several places to form a 12-by-4-inch oval. Drizzle garlic-rosemary oil into dimples but not too close to edge of dough. Carefully slide onto preheated stone, stretching as you pull out the peel. Repeat with remaining dough. Bake until golden, 8 to 10 minutes. Let cool slightly. Cut crosswise into slices, and serve with roasted garlic, garlic-rosemary oil or olive oil, and salt.

Steps:

• Put a large (17-by 14-inch) heavy baking sheet on lowest rack of oven, then preheat oven to 500°F.
• Mince and mash garlic to a paste with a pinch of salt, then stir together with oil.
• Roll out dough into a 16-by 13-inch rectangle on a lightly floured surface with a floured rolling pin, stretching corners with your hands. (Dough will become easier to roll out as it warms.) Transfer to a large baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Lightly prick dough all over with a fork. Stir garlic mixture and brush evenly over dough. Slide dough (on parchment) onto hot baking sheet. Bake until top is puffed and pale golden in patches, 6 to 10 minutes. (Prick any large bubbles with a fork and flatten.) Meanwhile, thinly slice mozzarella and pat dry.
• Meanwhile, thinly slice mozzarella and pat dry.
• Remove crust from oven and arrange mozzarella on it in 1 layer. Sprinkle rosemary on top. Bake until edge of crust is deep golden and cheese is bubbling and golden in patches, 8 to 10 minutes. Season with pepper.

Steps:

• Prepare barbecue (medium-high heat). Divide dough in half. Stretch and roll each piece to 10-inch round. Brush 1 side of each dough round or baked crust with oil, then sprinkle each with 1/2 teaspoon rosemary, sea salt, and pepper. Place on grill, seasoned side down. Brush tops with oil, then sprinkle each with 1/2 teaspoon rosemary, sea salt, and pepper. Grill until just golden, about 4 minutes per side for fresh dough and 2 minutes per side for baked crusts.
• Cut pizzas into wedges and serve.
