Salami Cherry Pepper Pizza Recipes

SALAMI & CHERRY PEPPER PIZZA

Steps:

• Heat oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Mix the bread dough following pack instructions, keeping it light and sticky. Knead it for a few mins, then place in a covered, oiled bowl for 30 mins to rise at room temperature.
• Take the dough out and squash to knock out the air. Roll out on a floured surface to fit the largest baking tray you have. Sprinkle flour or semolina over the tray, then place the dough on top. Spread the tomato sauce over the dough, then scatter with the salami, pickled cherry peppers , onion, chilli flakes, mozzarella and oregano. Bake for 12-15 mins or until the dough turns crusty and golden.

SUMMER PIZZA WITH SALAMI, ZUCCHINI, AND TOMATOES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°F. Brush an 18x13" rimmed baking pan with 1 Tbsp. oil. Gently stretch dough to a 16x12" oval and place in prepared baking sheet, pressing dough into edges of pan. (If dough springs back, cover with plastic wrap and let rest 10 minutes before stretching again.) Brush dough with 1 Tbsp. oil, then bake until golden and dry, 15-18 minutes.
• Meanwhile, whisk ricotta, 1 Tbsp. oil, 1 tsp. salt, and 1/2 tsp. pepper in a medium bowl until mixture looks a little whipped and fluffy. (If your ricotta is on the drier side, add another tablespoonful of oil.)
• Spread ricotta mixture over crust, leaving about a 1/2" margin on all sides. Top with a single layer of soppressata, overlapping slightly if needed. Bake pizza until ricotta mixture is golden and edges of soppressata are curled up and crisp, about 15 minutes.
• Whisk shallot, vinegar, and remaining 2 Tbsp. oil, 1/2 tsp. salt, and 1/2 tsp. pepper in a small bowl. Gently toss zucchini, tomatoes, and basil in a large bowl. Drizzle about one-third of the dressing over and toss again. Pile onto pizza with your hands. Drizzle remaining dressing over pizza and cut into slices.

SAUSAGE, MUSHROOM, AND PICKLED-PEPPER PIZZA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450°F with a pizza stone or baking sheet set on a rack in lowest position. Drizzle 3 tablespoons oil onto a rimmed quarter-sheet pan (9 by 12 1/2 inches). Stretch dough to edges of pan. Drizzle evenly with remaining 1 tablespoon oil; season with salt and pepper.
• Spread marinara evenly over dough, leaving a 1/2-inch border. Top evenly with cheese, then sausage, mushrooms, onion, and peppers. Bake in pan on stone until bubbly and crust is golden brown and set on bottom, 20 to 22 minutes. Top with basil; serve.
