• Meanwhile, toss zucchini, leeks, asparagus, peas, salt, and 1 Tbsp. oil in a medium bowl. Whisk ricotta, mozzarella, pesto, garlic, and lemon zest in another medium bowl until smooth.

Steps:

• Pour the ingredients into the machine and set the program for fresh dough, number 13 on the Kenwood. NB: when using the bread machine the ingredients should be placed in the exact order as listed above, liquids first.
• For best result, let the dough rest in the fridge overnight, well floured and wrapped in a plastic bag, otherwise, it will crawl all over the fridge.
• Add all the ingredients for the pesto in a blender.
• The pesto should be mixed gradually with pulsing movements. If mixed continuously the heat created by the blades will oxidize the basil turning the pesto into a dark colour.
• Once the dough is ready, cut it into 4 equal sizes and lay them down on a well-floured baking sheet.
• When the dough is rolled flat, it needs to rest for at least 10 minutes before it rises. In the meantime, put the pizza stone in the cold oven and set the oven at 430 F - 220 C.
• Once the oven reaches the temperature of 430 F -220C, take the pizza stone out of the oven and lay the dough on top.
• Top it with the stracchino cheese
• Drizzle with the pesto
• Cook it in the hot oven for 10 minutes
