POTATO AND GOAT CHEESE PIZZA WITH ROSEMARY

Steps:

• Prepare the dough and roll it out according to directions in basic dough recipe. While dough is rising, preheat oven to 375 degrees. Peel the potatoes, and cut them crosswise into slices 1/8-inch thick. Toss the slices with 1/2 teaspoon of the olive oil and place them in a single layer on a large baking sheet. Bake until the slices are tender, about 15 minutes.
• Increase oven temperature to 425 degrees. When the dough is rolled out, arrange the potato slices over the dough in concentric circles. Season with the salt and pepper. Sprinkle with the crumbled goat cheese and rosemary. Drizzle the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil over the top, and bake until the crust is golden brown, about 20 minutes. Cut into wedges, and serve immediately.

POTATO AND GOAT CHEESE GRATIN

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Grease the bottom and sides of a 1 1/2-quart gratin dish with the butter.
• Make a layer of overlapping potato slices on the bottom of the dish and sprinkle with half of the garlic and 1/3 of the goat cheese. Season with salt and pepper. Repeat with another layer of potatoes, the remaining garlic, another 1/3 of the cheese, and season with salt and pepper. Finish with a final layer of potatoes and the remaining cheese and season with salt and pepper. Pour the heavy cream over the top of the potatoes and, using your hands, press to condense the layers slightly. Make sure the potatoes are all covered with cream.
• Bake for 1 hour and 20 minutes, or until the gratin is bubbly and golden brown on top and the potatoes are cooked through. Let cool for 5 minutes before serving.

PIZZA WITH GREEN GARLIC, POTATOES AND HERBS

Steps:

• Combine the yeast and water in a 2-cup Pyrex measuring cup. Add the sugar, and stir together. Let sit two or three minutes, until the water is cloudy. Stir in the olive oil.
• Combine the whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour and salt in a food processor fitted with the steel blade. Pulse once or twice. Then, with the machine running, pour in the yeast mixture. Process until the dough forms a ball on the blades. Remove from the processor (the dough will be a little tacky; flour or moisten your hands so it won't stick), and knead on a lightly floured surface for a couple of minutes, adding flour as necessary for a smooth dough.
• Shape the dough into a ball, pinched at bottom and rounded at top. Transfer the dough to a clean, lightly oiled bowl, rounded side down first, then rounded side up. Cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap, and leave it in a warm spot to rise for 1 to 1 1/2 hours. When it is ready, the dough will stretch when it is gently pulled.
• Divide the dough into two equal balls. Put the balls on a lightly oiled tray or platter, cover with lightly oiled plastic wrap or a damp towel, and leave them to rest for 15 to 20 minutes. Afterward, the dough balls can be placed in a wide bowl, covered with plastic wrap and refrigerated for up to three days. Alternatively, you can wrap them loosely in lightly oiled plastic wrap and refrigerate them in a resealable plastic bag. When you are ready to roll out the pizzas, you will need to bring the balls to room temperature and punch them down again.
• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees. Place a pizza stone on the middle rack of the oven. Roll or press out the dough to a 12- to 14-inch circle. Lightly oil pizza pans, and dust with semolina or cornmeal. Place the dough on the pizza pan. With your fingers, form a slightly thicker raised rim around edge of the circle. Brush everything but the rim with a little olive oil, then top the pizza with the toppings of your choice.
• Place the pizza pan on the stone. Bake as directed.
• Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil, and drop in the garlic. Blanch for 30 seconds, and transfer to a bowl of cold water using a slotted spoon. Drain and dry on paper towels.
• Add the potatoes to the pot, and bring to a gentle boil. Cover partially, and simmer the potatoes until just tender when pierced with a knife - 10 to 15 minutes, depending on the size of the potatoes. Drain and rinse with cold water. When cool enough to handle, slice about 1/4 inch thick.
• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees with a baking stone inside. Roll or press out the pizza dough, and line a 12- to 14-inch pan. Brush all but the rim of the crust with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, and sprinkle on the Parmesan. Top with the sliced potatoes and sliced garlic. Season generously with salt and pepper, and sprinkle withthe rosemary or oregano. Drizzle on the remaining olive oil. Bake until the crust is browned and crisp, about 15 minutes. Serve hot or at room temperature.

POTATO, SAGE, AND ROSEMARY PIZZA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F. Heat oil in heavy large skillet over medium heat. Add potato slices in single layer. sauté until just tender, about 5 minutes. Cool briefly.
• Unroll dough on rimmed baking sheet. Scatter potato slices over dough, leaving 3/4-inch plain border. Sprinkle with rosemary, sage, garlic, and crushed red pepper. Sprinkle with cheeses to cover.
• Bake pizza until crust is crisp and cheeses melt, about 20 minutes. Using metal spatula, loosen crust from sheet. Slide out onto platter or board and serve.

POTATO, GOAT CHEESE AND GREEN ONION PIZZA

Steps:

• Slice up the potatoes thin. I used my mandolin and it worked perfect.
• Then put the potato slices in a bowl and salt them, toss to coat. Then cover with water and put in the fridge for an hour.
• Once the hour is up, remove the potatoes from the water and lay them out on paper towels to dry. Pat the tops dry if it is humid in your house.
• Put the shelf in your oven up to at least the middle of the oven, otherwise the bottom of the crust might burn. Preheat your oven to 450-500'F. You need it good and hot.
• While they are drying prepare your favourite pizza crust.
• Once you have the crust on the pizza pan pour some of the olive oil on the top of the crust and with your hands, spread it around and cover the whole pizza.
• Place the potatoes around the pizza like you would pepperoni. Then add the green onion, garlic rosemary mixture, salt and pepper and 3/4 of the goat's cheese.
• Drizzle the remaining olive oil over the pizza toppings and bake for 15-18 minutes. Check it half way through to make sure the bottom isn't burning too much, if it is then put the shelf up higher in the oven.
• Check it to make sure the potatoes are softened.
• Remove from oven and sprinkle the rest of the goats cheese on top. If you can't serve it right away cover with a piece of heavy tin foil.
• Bon Appetit!

PIZZA WITH ARTICHOKES, ROSEMARY AND GOAT CHEESE

Steps:

• Make the pizza dough. Combine the yeast with one-quarter cup of the water. Cover and leave until doubled in volume. If the mixture does not rise, throw it away and use a fresh package of yeast.
• If working by hand, combine the flour and salt and place on a smooth work surface. Make a well in the center and add the yeast mixture, two tablespoons olive oil and the remaining water. Gradually work the flour into the liquid using a wooden spoon. Knead until smooth and shiny, about eight to 10 minutes. Add more flour if the dough gets too sticky. If using a food processor, fit the bowl with a steel blade and put the flour, salt, two tablespoons olive oil, yeast mixture and remaining water into the bowl. Process until the dough forms a smooth ball, about 20 seconds. Place the dough on a smooth surface and knead for a couple of minutes, adding more flour if the dough is too sticky.
• Put the dough in an oiled bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and let the dough rise in a warm place for one hour, until doubled. Punch down and knead into a smooth ball. Let rise again for one hour. Freeze half the dough for a second pizza.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
• Trim the artichokes, cut them in half and saute until golden in the remaining olive oil. Remove from the frying pan.
• Saute the garlic, onions and rosemary until the onions are soft. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
• Spread the dough with the onion mixture. Top with the artichokes and sprinkle with the goat cheese and pine nuts. Bake for 18 to 20 minutes, or until the pizza is browned and crisp.
