Vegetarian Pizza Recipe

I figured I should share atleast one recipe, so this one will be my Vegetarian Pizza:


Ingrediants for Pizza Dough

1 package dry active yeast
11/3 cups warm water
1 Tablespoon sugar

Mix these together and let yeast sit for 5 minutes

Add to the bowl:
1 Tablespoon salt
2 Tablespoons Extra-virgin Olive Oil
31/2 cups unbleached al-purpose flour (you may only need 3 cups)

Add the flours gradually to the wet ingrediants until you no longer can mix. Start needing the dough and proceed for roughly ten minutes until the dough is well-combined.
Rest the dough in a clean bowl which is greased lightly with olive oil. Let it rise from between an hour to six hours.

Toppings:
Home-made sauce
1 28ounce can of tomatoes
3 cloves of garlic
2 Tablespoons olive oil
1 medium cooking onion

Crush garlic and dice onions. Cook them on medium heat in the olive oil till the onions are seemingly translucent. Add the can of tomatoes and cook until well-reduced. Add salt to taste.

Red pepper with Balsamic

1 large red pepper
1 garlic clove
1 small cooking onion

Thinly slice red pepper and onions then sautée them in 2 Tablespoons of Olive oil. Add garlic after two minutes of cooking. Once the pepper and onions are soft, de-glaze the pan with 2 tablespoons of fine quality Balsamic Vinegar. Let it reduce and turn heat off.


Roll dough out and top with the Tomato sauce, add Mozzerella and top with the red pepper and balsamic reduction sauce. Top with sliced mushrooms.

Bake @ 475'F till cheese is bubbling and crust is golden brown.



Enjoy!
