Pizza Al Tartufo Recipe

Pizza Preparation

1. 1

   Prepare the Dough

   Roll out the pizza dough on a floured surface to your desired thickness.

2. 2

   Preheat the Oven

   Preheat your oven to 475°F (245°C) or as high as it will go.

3. 3

   Sauté the Mushrooms

   In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add maitake mushrooms, season with salt and black pepper, and sauté until they are golden brown, about 5-7 minutes.

4. 4

   Assemble the Pizza

   Spread the sautéed mushrooms evenly over the rolled-out dough. Tear La Tur and Fontina cheeses into pieces and distribute them over the mushrooms.

5. 5

   Add Truffle

   Shave black truffle over the cheese and mushrooms for a rich flavor.

6. 6

   Bake the Pizza

   Transfer the assembled pizza to a baking stone or a baking sheet. Bake in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes or until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbling.

7. 7

   Serve

   Remove the pizza from the oven, let it cool for a minute, slice, and serve immediately.
