Mini Pizzas With Prosciutto Salad Topping Food

PROSCIUTTO PIZZA

Steps:

• Remove pizza dough from fridge if using fresh pizza and preheat oven or BBQ to 475° F with 2 pizza stones or baking trays upside down on middle rack in oven.
• Prepare fresh pizza dough as per package (or roll out into 2 pizza shapes of your choice on a floured surface).
• Sprinkle semolina flour on preheated pizza stones or baking trays (keep trays upside down) and place pizza dough on top. Bake/grill fresh pizza dough for approximately 3 minutes (skip this step if using pre-made pizza shells).
• Remove stones or baking trays from oven/grill and top pizza dough/shells with pizza sauce, grated mozzarella cheese, prosciutto, fresh mozzarella (tucked in between prosciutto), and sprinkle basil on top. Bake/grill** for 7-12 minutes or until dough is cooked through, cheese is nicely browned on top, and prosciutto looks crispy.
• Let cool for 2-5 minutes and slice into desired sized slices.

PIZZETTE - MINI PIZZA BITES WITH ASSORTED TOPPINGS

Steps:

• Dissolve yeast in lukewarm water with sugar. Let sit for 5-10 minutes.
• In a mixer bowl add flour and yeast water, give a quick stir.
• Using a dough hook attachment start to knead slowly increasing the speed.
• Add salt and extra virgin olive oil.
• NOTE: Don't add salt immediately as it'll weaken yeast quality!
• Knead for about 5 minutes.You should get a smoth and pretty soft dough. It'll be slightly sticky but manageable to handle it with your hands.
• Transfer the dough in large oiled bowl. Cover with a plastic wrap and let rise for 2-3 hours in a warm (not hot!) place.
• Past 2-3 hours the dough should double in size.
• Transfer it to a slightly floured work surface.
• Roll with a rolling pin to about 3-5 mm thick.
• Using a round cookie cutter about 3 inches in diameter cut out pizzette circles.
• Place pizzette on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper leaving some space in between.
• Cover with a linen towel and let rise for 30-60 minutes in a warm place.
• While pizzette are rising it's a good idea to prepare the sauce and the toppings.
• In a skillet pan add tomato puree/passata di pomodoro, let simmer on low heat until slightly reduced. The thickness of the sauce should be good enough to stay on pizzetta, not too liquid-y but also not paste-like.
• Add fresh basil leaved roughly torn with your hands.
• Cook for another few minutes and let cool.
• Cut, slice and pit all other ingredients that you've chosen as your pizza toppings.Here you can mix, match and be creative!
• Preheat oven to 375F / 190C
• Using your point finger press around and in the center of each pizzetta (see photo) to form a slight cavity to hold in the topping.
• Top with your favorite toppings.
• Bake in a preheated oven for 10-12 minutes until cheese is well melted and pizzette have a light golden edge. Be careful and don't overcook as the dough might become hard.
