Pizza Dough and Toppings

Method

Preparation and Cooking

  1. 1

    Prepare the Pizza Dough

    Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C). Roll out the pizza dough on a floured surface into a 12-inch circle. Transfer it to a pizza stone or baking sheet.

  2. 2

    Sauté the Mushrooms

    In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add sliced mushrooms and sauté until they are browned and tender, about 5-7 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Pizza

    Spread the sautéed mushrooms evenly over the prepared pizza dough. Sprinkle the shredded Fontina cheese on top.

  4. 4

    Bake the Pizza

    Place the pizza in the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the crust is golden brown.

  5. 5

    Add Arugula and Drizzle Oil

    Once the pizza is out of the oven, top it with fresh arugula and drizzle with truffle oil. Season with additional salt and pepper if desired.

  6. 6

    Slice and Serve

    Slice the pizza into wedges and serve immediately.
