Method

Dough Preparation

  1. 1

    Mix the Dough

    In a large bowl, combine warm water and active dry yeast. Let it sit for 5 minutes until frothy. Add olive oil, salt, and flour gradually, mixing until a dough forms.

  2. 2

    Knead the Dough

    Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead for about 10 minutes until smooth and elastic. Place it in a greased bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for 1 hour.

Assembly and Cooking

  1. 3

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your wood-fired oven to 800°F (425°C).

  2. 4

    Prepare the Toppings

    Cook the wood-fired bacon until crispy. In the same pan, sauté the thinly sliced onion until caramelized.

  3. 5

    Assemble the Pizza

    Roll out the dough on a floured surface to your desired thickness. Transfer to a pizza peel. Spread the caramelized onions evenly, followed by the crispy bacon. Add the shredded fior di latte mozzarella and dollops of ricotta cheese.

  4. 6

    Bake the Pizza

    Transfer the assembled pizza to the preheated oven and bake for about 8-10 minutes or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly.

  5. 7

    Add the Eggs

    Crack the eggs on top of the pizza during the last 2 minutes of baking. Season with salt and pepper.

  6. 8

    Garnish and Serve

    Once cooked, remove the pizza from the oven, garnish with fresh basil, and serve uncut.
