Brie Proscuitto Pizza Food

PROSCIUTTO AND BRIE CROSTINI

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler. Line a baking sheet with foil.
• Arrange the baguette slices on the prepared baking sheet. Cut the Brie into 1/4-inch-thick slices and put 1 slice on each piece of baguette. Broil until the cheese is melted, 1 to 2 minutes.
• Drizzle the toasts with the honey and then top with some prosciutto and a sprinkle of thyme leaves if using.

ARUGULA-PROSCIUTTO PIZZA

Steps:

• Position a rack in the middle of the oven. Place a pizza stone or upside-down baking sheet on the rack and preheat to 450 ̊ F. Roll out the pizza dough on a lightly floured surface into a 12-inch round. Transfer to a cornmeal-dusted pizza peel or another upside-down baking sheet; slide the dough onto the hot stone or baking sheet. Bake 8 minutes. Meanwhile, combine 2 tablespoons olive oil in a small bowl with the garlic, rosemary, and salt and pepper to taste.
• Remove the crust from the oven, brush with the olive oil mixture and top with the ricotta and mozzarella. Return to the oven and bake until the cheese is golden and bubbly, about 6 more minutes.
• Meanwhile, toss the arugula and shallot in a large bowl with the lemon juice, remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil, and salt and pepper to taste. Top the pizza with the arugula salad, prosciutto and shaved Parmesan.

PROSCIUTTO AND PEAR GRILLED FLATBREAD

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• Heat a grill pan over medium-high heat and brush with olive oil.
• Meanwhile, roll out the pizza dough 1/4- to 1/2-inch-thick on a lightly floured surface into the desired shape; for a flatbread I like an elongated oval to fit my grill pan. Place the dough on the grill pan and cook until crusty grill marks appear, about 3 minutes. Flip and grill the other side.
• Top the grilled side with a brushing of olive oil, the sliced pears and fontina cheese, arranging everything in a flat even layer. When the crust is heated through and not doughy, and grill marks appear, remove the flatbread to a sheet pan and place in the oven. Bake until the cheese is melted and the pears are heated through, 5 to 7 minutes.
• Meanwhile, add the arugula to a medium bowl, then drizzle with the lemon juice and some olive oil to lightly coat . Season with a small pinch of salt and the crushed red pepper. Remove the pizza from the oven and top with the prosciutto, then the dressed greens. Drizzle with the truffle honey. Slice and serve! Salty-sweet! Yum!

BRIE, PEAR AND PROSCIUTTO PIZZA

Steps:

• Position racks in top and bottom thirds of oven. Preheat to 425°F Lightly spray 2 baking sheets with oil.
• Dust a counter with flour. Roll out each portion of dough into 8 inch-wide rounds. Top with brie slices, then pear slices. Brush tops of pizza and crust with oil. Sprinkle with mozzarella.
• Bake in top and bottom thirds of oven, switching sheets halfway through, until bottom of crust is golden and cheese is melted, 20 to 25 minutes. Sprinkle with prosciutto and parsley.

FIG-PROSCIUTTO PIZZA WITH ARUGULA

Steps:

• For the crust: Sprinkle the yeast over 3/4 cup warm (not lukewarm) water in a bowl.
• In a stand mixer with the paddle attachment, add the flour and salt and, with the mixer running on low speed, drizzle in the olive oil. Keep going until it's mixed through. Next, pour in the yeast/water mixture and mix until just combined.
• Coat a separate mixing bowl with a light drizzle of olive oil, tip the dough in and form it into a ball. Toss to coat the dough ball in the olive oil, then cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap and allow the dough to rise for at least an hour, or up to 3 or 4 days.
• Preheat the oven to 500 degrees F. Arrange the oven rack in the lowest position.
• For the topping: Roll out the pizza dough on a lightly floured surface as thinly as possible Dough should be roughly 17 by 10 inches. Place on a large baking sheet. Drizzle lightly with the olive oil and sprinkle lightly with salt. Spread the fig spread all over the surface of the dough. Lay the slices of mozzarella all over the surface of the pizza crust. Sprinkle lightly with salt and pepper. Bake the pizza until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly, 12 to 15 minutes.
• Remove from the oven and immediately drape the prosciutto slices over the hot pizza. Sprinkle generously with the arugula and Parmesan shavings. Cut into wedges or squares and serve immediately!
