Mushroomandricottapizza Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees, with racks in upper and lower thirds. Brush 2 rimmed baking sheets with oil, or for easy cleanup, line with parchment paper then brush with oil. Place 1 wrap on each sheet; brush with 1 teaspoon oil.
• Sprinkle wraps with Asiago, then dollop with ricotta. Sprinkle with mushrooms and onion; season with salt and pepper.
• Bake pizzas until crust is crisp and very brown all over, 20 to 25 minutes, rotating sheets from top to bottom and front to back twice during baking. Cut in half with a pizza cutter or knife; serve one half per person.

Steps:

• In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook pasta until al dente. Reserve 3/4 cup pasta water; drain pasta and return to pot.
• Meanwhile, in a large skillet, melt 1 tablespoon butter over medium. Add onion and cook until softened, about 4 minutes. Add wine and cook until almost evaporated, 4 to 6 minutes. Add mushrooms; season with salt and pepper and cook until browned, about 8 minutes. Remove skillet from heat and stir in 1 tablespoon butter.
• Add mushroom mixture, ricotta, and lemon juice to pasta; stir to combine, adding enough pasta water to create a thin sauce. Serve topped with Parmesan.

Steps:

• Put pizza stone in oven and heat to 425 degrees. While stone is heating, brush olive oil evenly over shell and bake 5 to 7 minutes or until oil bubbles. (If using thin crust pizza, you can eliminate pre-baking of the pizza crust.)
• While shell bakes begin cooking the mushrooms. Heat saute or fry pan on high heat, add the oil, garlic and shallots and quickly saute for approximately 30 seconds. Do not allow the garlic/shallot mixture to burn.
• Add mushrooms to hot pan, saute quickly until most of the mushroom juices have evaporated (3 to 5 minutes), then add wine. Continue to saute until wine completely evaporates and mushrooms have turned a darker shade or brown, about 2 to 3 minutes. Remove mushroom mixture from heat.
• Remove shell from oven (leave stone in oven to keep it hot) and allow to cool slightly. Spread the gorgonzola cheese evenly over the warm crust so that it melts slightly. You can dip your fingers in olive oil to spread the gorgonzola. Spread the mushroom mixture evenly over the crust. Add the Fontina cheese, distributing it as evenly as possible. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
• Place on hot stone in oven and bake 12 to 15 minutes or until cheese is lightly browned and bubbly. Cool and cut into small rectangles for hors d'oeuvres or into pie-shaped pieces for first course or main course portions. Serve warm or at room temperature.
• This recipe can be adjusted to suit personal taste such as adding dried, red hot pepper or use different cheeses; however you should not eliminate the gorgonzola. It can be served with champagne as an hors d'oeuvre and with dry red wine as an appetizer or main course with a tossed salad.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Place pizza crust on baking sheet.
• In a small bowl, mix together olive oil and sesame oil. Brush onto pre-baked pizza crust, covering entire surface. Stack the spinach leaves, then cut lengthwise into 1/2 inch strips; scatter evenly over crust. Cover pizza with shredded mozzarella, and top with sliced mushrooms.
• Bake in preheated oven for 8 to 10 minutes, or until cheese is melted and edges are crisp.

Steps:

• In a saucepan, warm the broth over low heat.
• Warm 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Stir in the mushrooms, and cook until soft, about 3 minutes. Remove mushrooms and their liquid, and set aside.
• Add 1 tablespoon olive oil to skillet, and stir in the shallots. Cook 1 minute. Add rice, stirring to coat with oil, about 2 minutes. When the rice has taken on a pale, golden color, pour in wine, stirring constantly until the wine is fully absorbed. Add 1/2 cup broth to the rice, and stir until the broth is absorbed. Continue adding broth 1/2 cup at a time, stirring continuously, until the liquid is absorbed and the rice is al dente, about 15 to 20 minutes.
• Remove from heat, and stir in mushrooms with their liquid, butter, chives, and parmesan. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425°F. Split each pita bread around edge with knife to make 2 rounds. Place rounds, cut sides up, on ungreased cookie sheet. Top rounds with mushrooms, onion and bell pepper. Sprinkle with basil and cheeses.
• Bake 8 to 10 minutes or until cheese is melted. Cut each round into 8 wedges.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
• Prepare pizza dough-roll out on lightly floured surface and place on lightly oiled pizza pan.
• Toss the mushrooms with the 1 TBL of olive oil. Top pizza dough with the mushrooms, garlic and oregano.
• Drop dollops of ricotta, drizzle with olive oil, Kosher salt and fresh ground pepper.
• Top with fresh basil leaves. Sprinkle mozzarella cheese over basil leaves.
• Bake for 10 to 12 minutes or until crust is done and cheese is melted.

Steps:

• Place a pizza stone or inverted baking sheet on the middle oven rack and preheat to 450˚ F. Whisk the vinegar, sugar and a pinch of salt in a small bowl, then add the sliced red onion and submerge in the vinegar; set aside to pickle.
• Heat 3 tablespoons olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms, season with salt and pepper and cook, undisturbed, until golden brown on the bottom, 5 minutes. Stir and continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until crisp in spots and golden brown, 5 more minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, 1 minute. Add 1/3 cup barbecue sauce and 2 tablespoons water and cook, stirring, until most of the liquid is absorbed and the mushrooms are glazed, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from the heat.
• Coat a baking sheet with the remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil. Add the pizza dough and stretch into an 11-by-13-inch oval. Top with the remaining 1/4 cup barbecue sauce and spread using the back of a spoon, leaving a 1/2-inch border. Sprinkle with the gouda, then top with the mushrooms, then the Monterey Jack. Put the baking sheet directly on the hot pizza stone or inverted baking sheet. Bake until the crust is golden brown on the bottom and around the edges, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Slide the pizza onto a large cutting board. Drain the red onion and scatter over the pizza, along with the scallion and cilantro. Cut into pieces.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400°F Spread the pizza dough out to cover a large baking sheet, then brush with 2 tablespoons of the olive oil and sprinkle with the garlic. Bake for 8 minutes.
• Meanwhile, thinly slice the shitake and white mushrooms. In a large skillet, heat the remaining tablespoon of olive oil over high heat and sauté the mushrooms until golden, 8 to 10 minutes. Season to taste with salt.
• Sprinkle the baked dough with the Swiss cheese, then the mushrooms and the mozzarella. Sprinkle a little more salt over the topping and return the pizza to the oven. Bake until the cheese is golden and bubbly, about 15 minutes.
• Cut into squares and serve.
