Preparation
-
1.In a large bowl, combine the bread flour, instant yeast, and salt. Gradually add the warm water and olive oil, mixing until a dough forms.
-
2.Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead for 5-7 minutes, until smooth and elastic. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let it rise for 1-2 hours, or until doubled in size.
-
3.Preheat the oven to 230°C (450°F). Punch down the dough and divide it into two equal portions. Roll out each portion into a thin circle.
-
4.Transfer the dough circles to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown.
-
5.Remove the pizza crusts from the oven and evenly distribute the shredded mozzarella cheese over each crust. Top with cherry tomatoes and prosciutto.
-
6.Return the pizzas to the oven and bake for an additional 5-7 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
-
7.Remove from the oven and let the pizzas cool slightly. Top with arugula, fresh basil leaves, salt, and pepper. Slice and serve.
Treat your ingredients with care...
- Bread flour — Use bread flour instead of all-purpose flour for a chewier crust.
- Mozzarella cheese — Opt for fresh mozzarella for a creamier texture and better flavor.
- Cherry tomatoes — Choose ripe and flavorful cherry tomatoes for a burst of freshness.
- Arugula — Lightly dress the arugula with olive oil and lemon juice for added brightness.
- Prosciutto — Look for high-quality prosciutto with a delicate and savory taste.
Tips & Tricks
- For a crispier crust, preheat a pizza stone in the oven and bake the pizza directly on the stone.
- Experiment with different toppings such as caramelized onions, goat cheese, or truffle oil to add a touch of luxury.
- To achieve a more pronounced Nouvelle Cuisine presentation, consider arranging the toppings in an artistic and visually appealing manner.
- If you prefer a spicier kick, sprinkle some red pepper flakes over the pizza before baking.
- Serve the pizza with a drizzle of balsamic glaze for an extra layer of flavor.
Serving advice
Serve the Nouvelle Cuisine New York-Style Pizza as a main course for lunch or dinner. Accompany it with a fresh green salad to balance the richness of the pizza.
Presentation advice
To elevate the presentation, garnish the pizza with a few additional fresh basil leaves and a sprinkle of grated Parmesan cheese. Cut the pizza into elegant slices and arrange them on a rectangular serving platter.
