Creating a Truffle Parmigiano Cheese pizza
is a gourmet option that highlights the rich and earthy flavor of truffles along with the nuttiness of Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese. Here’s a recipe to make one at home.
Ingredients
– 1 ball of pizza dough (homemade or store-bought)
– 1/4 cup white truffle oil
– 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
– 1/2 cup grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese
– Fresh thyme leaves
– Salt and pepper to taste
– Optional: sliced mushrooms, caramelized onions, arugula
Instructions
1. Preheat your oven to the highest temperature possible, typically around 475-500°F (245-260°C). If you have a pizza stone, place it in the oven to preheat as well.
2. Roll out the pizza dough on a lightly floured surface to your desired thickness. Transfer the dough to a pizza peel or parchment-lined baking sheet.
3. Brush the white truffle oil evenly over the dough, covering the entire surface.
4. Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the truffle oil, followed by the grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese.
5. If desired, add sliced mushrooms and caramelized onions on top of the cheese.
6. Season with salt and pepper to taste, and sprinkle fresh thyme leaves over the pizza.
7. Carefully transfer the assembled pizza to the preheated oven, either directly onto the pizza stone or onto the oven rack.
8. Bake for 10-15 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and crispy, and the cheese is bubbly and melted.
9. Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing.
10. If desired, top the pizza with fresh arugula leaves just before serving for a peppery contrast to the rich truffle and Parmigiano flavor.
11. Serve hot and enjoy your delicious homemade Truffle Parmigiano Cheese pizza!
This pizza offers a luxurious and indulgent experience with the delicate and aromatic flavor of truffles combined with the nutty richness of Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese. Feel free to customize the toppings or add extra ingredients according to your preferences.
