Three Cheese Pizza With Truffle Oil Recipes

Steps:

• follow heating directions for crust. (I heat the oven to 425 degrees).
• sprinkle mozzarella and Parmesan cheese evenly on crust.
• dollop the ricotta cheese to your liking on top.
• bake pizza until cheese get bubbly.
• drizzle truffle oil over cooked pizza.
• enjoy.

Steps:

• In a small bowl stir together yeast, oil, sugar, and about 3 tablespoons water until smooth. Stir in remaining water. In large bowl of a standing electric mixer fitted with dough hook whisk together 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, cornmeal, whole-wheat flour, and salt. With mixer on low speed stir in yeast mixture and blend until mixture forms a dough. With mixer on medium speed knead dough, adding enough of remaining 1 cup flour as necessary to prevent dough from sticking, until smooth and elastic, about 5 minutes.
• Put dough in an oiled deep bowl and turn to coat with oil. Let dough rise, loosely covered with plastic wrap, in a warm place 1 hour, or until doubled in bulk, and punch down. Divide dough into 5 balls.
• On a lightly floured surface roll out each ball of dough into a 9 1/2-inch round and stack, lightly floured, between sheets of parchment paper. Dough may be made 8 hours ahead and chilled, tightly wrapped in plastic wrap.
• Preheat oven to 550° F
• Cut mushrooms into 1/4-inch dice. Quarter zucchini lengthwise and cut off seed core. Cut zucchini into 1/4-inch dice and in a bowl toss together with mushrooms, chives, and salt and pepper to taste.
• Spread 1 cup Robiola on each round of dough, leaving a 1/2-inch border around the edge. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon cornmeal on each of 2 baking sheets and transfer 1 pizza to each. Scatter about 2/3 cup mushroom mixture over each pizza and bake in batches in lower third of oven 10 to 12 minutes, or until crust is crisp and golden.
• Transfer pizzas to plates and drizzle each with 1 tablespoon truffle oil. Top and bake remaining pizzas in same manner.

Steps:

• Pizza Crust:.
• Dissolve sugar and yeast in warm water in a large bowl; let it stand 5 minutes. Weigh or spoon 5.6 oz flour into dry measuring cups; level with a knife. (1 1/4 cups).
• Add the flour and 1/4 tsp salt to the yeast mixture; stir until a soft dough forms. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface.
• Knead until smooth and elastic (about 10 minutes); add enough of the remaining flour, 1 tbsp at a time, to prevent the dough from sticking to your hands. (Dough will feel tacky).
• Place the dough in a large bowl coated with cooking spray, turning to coat the top. Cover the surface of the dough with plastic wrap lightly coated with cooking spray; let rise in a warm place (85°), free from drafts, 30 minutes or until doubled in size. (Gently press two fingers into the dough. If the indentation remains, the dough has risen enough.
• Punch the dough down; cover and let it stand 5 minutes.
• Line a baking sheet with parchment paper; sprinkle with cornmeal. Roll the dough into a 12 inch circle on a floured surface. Then place the dough on the prepared baking sheet. Crimp the edges of the dough with your fingers to form a rim; let rise for 10 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 475°.
• Mushroom Topping:.
• While the dough rises, heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add olive oil to the pan and swirl to coat. Add the mushrooms and remaining 1/4 tsp salt; cook 7 minutes or until the mushrooms soften and moisture almost evaporates, stirring frequently.
• Sprinkle 1/4 cup fontina evenly over the dough. Arrange the mushroom mixture evenly over the fontina.
• SPrinkle with thyme; drizzle evenly with the truffle oil. Sprinkle remaining fontina and Parmesan cheese evenly over the top.
• Bake at 475° for 15 minutes or until the crust is lightly browned. Slide the pizza onto a cutting board; sprinkle with sea salt. Cut into 8 slices and serve immediately.
