Cooking Instructions
- 1
Prepare the Dough
Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). If using store-bought dough, let it sit at room temperature for 30 minutes before stretching.

Caramelize Onions
In a skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add thinly sliced onions and a pinch of salt. Cook slowly, stirring occasionally, until golden brown and caramelized, about 20 minutes.
- 3
Roast Garlic
Wrap whole garlic cloves in aluminum foil with a drizzle of olive oil. Roast in the oven for about 20-25 minutes until soft. Squeeze the roasted garlic out of the skins and mash it into a paste.

Sauté Mushrooms
In the same skillet used for the onions, add another tablespoon of olive oil and the sliced white mushrooms. Sauté until they release their moisture and are golden brown, about 5-7 minutes. Season with salt, black pepper, and fresh thyme.

Assemble the Pizza

Finish with Saba
Once out of the oven, drizzle the pizza with saba for added sweetness and depth of flavor. Let cool for a minute, then slice and serve.
