White Mushroom Pizza
Report
This White Mushroom Pizza features a cornmeal-dusted crust topped with sautéed cremini mushrooms cooked in garlic, butter, and olive oil alongside herbs. Fresh mozzarella slices and creamy ricotta cheese complete the topping, baked until the crust is golden and the cheeses are melted.
Description
The White Mushroom Pizza starts with a 12-inch dough rolled on a cornmeal-sprinkled surface, which helps achieve a crisp bottom. Mushrooms are thinly sliced and sautéed with minced garlic in a mix of butter and olive oil until browned and tender, seasoned with dried thyme and oregano. The pizza dough is topped with fresh mozzarella slices and dollops of ricotta cheese, then generously covered with the cooked mushrooms. Baking at 450°F melts the cheeses and crisps the crust to golden brown. The result is a savory pizza with earthy mushroom flavor and a combination of creamy and elastic cheese textures.
