Truffle Pizza Recipe

Ingredients:

3 1/2 cups Flour
1 lb. New potatoes; thinly sliced, blanched
1 tbsp. Yeast
1 cup Warm water (110� F)
1 cup red onions, Julienned
1 Drizzle truffle oil
1/4 cup Olive oil
2 tbsps. Extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 cup Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, Grated
2 tsps. Salt
Freshly-ground white pepper; to taste
Salt; to taste
2 tbsps. chives, Chopped

Directions:

Oven should be preheated to 400′ F. Using an electric mixer, combine together oil, yeast and water then mix until mixture forms a sticky paste.

Use dough hook with mixer and then add salt & flour to paste mixture until dough will crawl up sides of dough hook.

Take dough out of bowl then place it in another bowl that has been well greased then allow this dough to rise covered until it has doubled in its size for an hour.

Lightly dust some flour on a flat surface then put pizza dough on it. Cut dough in 4 four-ounce balls and then cover them again and let dough sit to rest about 10-15 mins.

After dough as rested, press them in 4 10-inch round shapes that are 1/2 to 1-inch thick and brush dough using some olive oil.

Potatoes should be divided in 4 equal parts and then seasoned with pepper and some salt. Arrange blanched potatoes on the pizza crust but leave at least an inch at the side to make the borders.

In a bowl, combine together extra virgin olive oil and julienned onions and toss.

Arrange onions at the top of arranged potatoes and then sprinkle with grated Parmigiano Reggiano then drizzle truffle oil on each of the pizzas.

Bake in oven for about 15-20 mins. or just until crust has turned golden and crispy. Finish with garnishing of chopped chives.
