Individual Dilled Salmon Pizzas Recipes

SALMON AND HERB PIZZA

Steps:

• Pre-heat pizza stone in a 450°F oven, placing the rack in the bottom third of the oven.
• With a sharp knife, slice the salmon into 1/4 inch ribbons.
• Then, in a small bowl, season the salmon ribbons with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, salt, and a generous amount of freshly cracked paper.
• Stir gently and set aside.
• Next, roll out the raw crust dough to a diameter of 15 inches and transfer to a parchment-covered pizza paddle.
• Brush the crust evenly with 3 tablespoons of olive oil.
• Spread the diced garlic over the entire crust, be sure to stop just short of the edges.
• Then top with the onions, the Kalamata olives, and 2/3 of the parsley and dill.
• Add the feta.
• Then add the seasoned salmon in a single layer over the other toppings.
• Sprinkle the salmon with the remaining 1/3 of the dill and parsley.
• Then top everything with the mozzarella cheese.
• Finally, transfer the prepared pizza with the parchment to the pizza stone.
• Bake for 15-20 minutes or until the crust is golden brown, and the cheese is bubbly and gently caramelized.
• Transfer the parchment and pizza to a cutting service.
• Allow it to sit for a couple of minutes for the toppings to set.
• Slice and serve.
• Optional: drizzle olive oil over individual slices and garnish with chopped parsley.

SMOKED SALMON PIZZA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• Crisp pizza crust 5 minutes on perforated pizza pan or on oven rack.
• While pizza crust is in oven, mix sour cream with lemon juice and dill in a small bowl.
• Remove pizza shell from oven and let stand until cool to the touch. You have a pocket of time here to work on other recipes.
• On cool, crisp pizza shell, spread the sour cream-dill sauce in an even layer. Evenly distribute sliced smoked salmon, working all the way to the edges.
• Top pizza with sliced cucumber, red onion, and capers.
• To serve, cut pizza in 1/2. Cut each 1/2 in 1/2 again, 4 cuts across. Turn the pan a 1/4 turn and slice into quarters, making 16 cuts.

SMOKED SALMON PIZZAS

Steps:

• For the dough, combine the water, yeast, honey, and 3 tablespoons of olive oil in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the dough hook. Add 3 cups of the flour, then 2 teaspoons of salt and mix for about 10 minutes, slowly adding up to 1 more cup of flour to just keep the dough from sticking to the bowl. When the dough is ready, turn it out onto a floured board and knead by hand a dozen times. It should be smooth and elastic. Brush a medium bowl with olive oil, place the dough in the bowl, and turn it several times to cover lightly with oil. Cover the bowl with a clean, damp kitchen towel and set aside at room temperature for 30 minutes, until doubled in size.
• Divide the dough into 6 equal parts and roll each one into a smooth ball. Place the balls on a sheet pan and cover them with the damp towel. Allow the dough to rest for 10 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 500 degrees. Sprinkle 3 sheet pans with cornmeal.
• If you've chilled the dough, leave it at room temperature for 30 minutes to allow it to come to room temperature. Press each piece of dough into a circle with your fingertips. Stretch the balls of dough into rough 8-inch circles and place them on the prepared sheet pans.
• Brush the dough with olive oil and bake for 12 to 15 minutes, until lightly browned and crisp, rotating the pans to bake evenly. Set aside to cool slightly.
• Whisk the mascarpone with 1 tablespoon of the chives, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Spread the mixture on the pizzas, and place one layer of smoked salmon on top.
• Place the pizzas on a serving board, top them with dressed mesclun, and serve immediately.
• Whisk together the lemon juice, olive oil, dill, salt, and pepper. Toss the mesclun greens with enough of the vinaigrette to moisten. Sprinkle with chives.

SMOKED SALMON PIZZA (A LA WOLFGANG)

Steps:

• For the smoked salmon: Mix the kosher salt, brown sugar, granulated sugar and peppercorns in a medium bowl. Cut a piece of extra-wide aluminum foil a little longer than the length of the salmon. Place an equally long piece of plastic wrap on top of the foil. Sprinkle one-third of the salt rub onto the plastic. Lay one side of the salmon skin-side down onto the rub. Sprinkle another third of the rub onto the flesh of the salmon. Place the second side of the salmon flesh-side down onto the first side. Use the remaining rub to cover the skin on the top piece. Fold the plastic over the salmon to cover, and then close the edges of the foil together and crimp tightly around the salmon. The salmon should be folded in half and wrapped.
• Place the wrapped salmon on a baking sheet and top with another baking sheet. Weigh the top pan down with a brick or two. Refrigerate the salmon for 12 hours. Flip the salmon over and refrigerate for another 12 hours. Some juice will leak out during the refrigeration process, so make sure there's a place for the runoff to gather.
• Unwrap the salmon and rinse off the salt rub with cold water. Pat the salmon dry with paper towels and place in a cool, dry place (not the refrigerator) until the surface of the salmon is dry and matte-like, 1 to 3 hours depending on humidity. A fan may be used to speed the process.
• Preheat the smoker. Smoke the salmon over the smoldering alder wood chips until the thickest part of the salmon registers 150 degrees, about 30 minutes. Keep the temperature inside the smoker between 190 and 200 degrees F. Serve the salmon immediately, or cool to room temperature, wrap tightly and refrigerate for up to 3 days.
• Meanwhile, for the pizza dough: Place the warm water and yeast in a large bowl. When the yeast dissolves, let the water stand about 5 minutes. Stir in 3 cups of the flour and the fine salt until smooth. Stir in an additional 2 cups of the flour and continue adding flour (up to 1/2 cup) 1 tablespoon at a time, until the dough comes away from the bowl but is still sticky.
• Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured work surface, and knead with lightly floured hands. Slap the dough onto the counter, pulling it toward you with one hand and pushing it away from you with the other. Fold the dough back over itself using a bench scraper or a wide knife to help scrape dough from surface. Repeat the process until the dough is easier to handle, about 10 times. Finish kneading until the dough is smooth, elastic and soft, but a little tacky, about 10 minutes.
• Lightly oil a bowl with olive oil. Shape the dough into 2 balls and transfer to the bowl. Turn to coat the dough. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let it rise in a warm place until the dough doubles in volume, about 3 hours. The dough is done when you press it with your finger and an indent remains.
• Gently remove the dough from the bowl. Roll each dough half into a ball and place on a lightly-floured baking sheet. Brush the dough balls lightly with olive oil. Cover the baking sheet lightly with plastic wrap and set aside for 15 minutes.
• Prepare charcoal in a chimney starter (allowing the charcoal to burn until all the charcoal is covered with a thin layer of gray ash). Add to the grill, creating a two-level fire by spreading the coals out over half the grill bottom, piling them up in a mound 3 briquettes high, and leaving the other half with no coals.
• Stretch and shape each piece of dough into a 10-inch-round on a flat surface. Brush the tops of each round with canola oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place the rounds on the grilling stones and cook until the bottoms are lightly golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Brush the tops of the rounds with oil, flip and cook until the bottoms are lightly golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes.
• For the assembly: Whisk the creme fraiche, chopped herbs, zest together and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Spread the creme fraiche mixture on top of each cooked dough round. Flake some of the smoked salmon and place on top of the creme fraiche mixture. Top with the capers and onions. Garnish with whole herbs. Serve immediately.

SMOKED SALMON, DILL AND GOAT CHEESE PIZZA

Steps:

• Let dough rise in warm draft-free area until doubled, about 1 hour.
• Preheat oven to 450°F. Butter 12-inch-diameter pizza pan. Knead dough briefly on floured surface. Sprinkle 1/4 cup dill over and knead dough until dill is well incorporated. Roll out dough on lightly floured surface to 12-inch round. Transfer to prepared pan. Build up edges of dough to form rim. Brush dough lightly with olive oil. Sprinkle 1/4 cup dill over, then goat cheese. Top with onion. Bake until cheese melts and crust is golden brown, about 20 minutes. Sprinkle smoked salmon, olives and remaining 1/4 cup dill over.

INDIVIDUAL DILLED SALMON PIZZAS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F.
• Cook salmon fillets your favourite way. You can heat oil in a frying pan and cook until lightly browned and just barely cooked through. You can also broil, poach or grill the salmon, whichever you prefer. Just remember to salt and pepper to taste. Break apart into semi-large chunks when cooked.
• Meanwhile, mix sour cream, lemon juice, green onion and dill. Spread a quarter of the mixture on each pita. Sprinkle evenly with pimentos and cooked salmon.
• Sprinkle with parmesan and then mozzarella. Cook directly on rack for about 10 minutes or until lightly browned. By cooking the pita right on the rack, it will crisp up and not get soggy from the toppings.
• Let cool for 5 minutes and then cut and serve!
