Provided by Tieghan Gerard

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 tablespoons salted butter
3 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1 teaspoon dried basil
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1/2 teaspoon crushed fennel seed
1 pinch red pepper flakes (use to taste)
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1 pinch each kosher salt and black pepper
16 ounces fresh baby spinach
1 cup whole milk mozzarella, cubed
1/2 pound pizza dough, homemade or store-bought
1 cup shredded fontina, gouda, or mozzarella cheese
1/3 cup grated parmesan
1 (8 ounce) jar marinated artichokes, drained

Steps:

  • 1. Position the oven rack in the upper 1/3 portion of your oven. Preheat the oven to 500° F. for at least 30 minutes before baking, preferably 1-2 hours ahead. If you have a baking stone, start preheating it.2. In a skillet, melt together the butter, basil, oregano, thyme, fennel, and red pepper flakes. Cook until the garlic is golden and crisp, 3-4 minutes. Pour the garlic butter out of the skillet and set aside. 3. Set the same skillet over medium heat. Add the olive oil, baby spinach, and a pinch each of salt and pepper. Cook 5 minutes, until the spinach is wilted, make sure to get all the excess water out. 4. On a lightly floured surface, push/roll the pizza dough out until it is pretty thin (about a 12-14 inch circle). Place the pizza dough on a lightly oiled sheet pan. Arrange the cubed mozzarella around the edge of the dough. Fold the edges of the dough over the cheese, pinching to seal the cheese inside.5. Spread on the garlic butter, then the spinach. Sprinkle on the shredded cheese and parmesan. Toss the artichokes with a drizzle of olive oil, then arrange them over the pizza. 6. Slide into the preheated oven and bake for 10 minutes, rotate the pizza, and bake another 3-5 minutes or until the crust is golden and the cheese has melted. Top the pizza with fresh basil. ENJOY!

Blonde pizza is made without tomato sauce. This makes two large (10 x 15 inch rectangular, or 14-inch round) thin and crispy crust pizza. If a thicker crust is desired, use smaller pans and roll dough thicker. Most of the time is spent waiting for the dough to rise. Made for RSC #11.

Categories     Cheese

Time 1h20m

Yield 2 pizzas, 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

3 cups all-purpose flour (may substitute up to 1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour, if desired)
1 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons instant yeast (rapid rise)
1 1/2 cups warm water
6 tablespoons olive oil, divided
1/2 cup minced shallot
1/4 cup minced garlic
1 teaspoon anchovy paste
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 (10 ounce) package frozen chopped spinach, thawed
1 (14 ounce) can artichoke hearts
2 cups grated smoked gouda cheese

Steps:

  • Spinach Pizza
  • Mix flour, salt, and instant yeast in a mixing bowl. Add warm water and mix well.
  • Turn dough mixture out on to a floured surface, and knead until smooth and elastic, about 10-15 minutes.
  • Put 2 tablespoons oil into the mixing bowl, and turn the bowl to coat with oil. Add the dough to the oiled bowl and turn it around so that all sides are covered with oil.
  • Cover with a lid or plastic wrap and set aside in a warm spot to rise for 45 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, mix the remaining 4 tablespoons of oil with the minced shallots, minced garlic, salt, anchovy paste and oregano, and mash until a uniform paste is achieved. Set aside.
  • Squeeze the moisture out of the thawed chopped spinach. Measure out 1/2 cup of spinach for pizza, packing well into measuring cup. Reserve remaining spinach for another use.
  • Drain artichoke hearts and remove any tough outer leaves. Chop into quarters or smaller.
  • Preheat oven to 400 F and put rack at, or above, center.
  • After dough has doubled in size, punch down and turn out to floured surface. Divide in half, and roll each half to fit your pans.
  • Heap up a little dough around the edges.
  • Set dough in pans aside in a warm spot, covered with a clean kitchen towel or a large piece of plastic wrap, to rest for 15 minutes.
  • After resting, coat each dough with half of the shallot/garlic mixture.
  • Top with the pieces of artichoke, and small bits of spinach, evenly distributing around pizza. The pizza will not be completely covered with topping -- you will still be able to see small areas of dough.
  • Sprinkle the grated cheese over each pizza.
  • Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until crust is browned and cheese is bubbly. You may want to rotate pizzas halfway through baking to prevent uneven cooking.
