Yield: 2 (10 inch) pizzas

Ingredients:

Pizza Dough- about 20 oz fresh store bought OR *recipe here from my Tomato Margherita Pizza*
3 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
All purpose flour for dusting

For the sauce:

Fresh Mozzarella Cheese- 8 oz, grated
Ricotta Cheese- 8-10 oz tub
Goat Cheese- 6 oz, crumbled 

Toppings:

Dried Oregano – 2 teaspoons
Salt and Crushed Black Pepper
1 Tomato- Sliced (rounds)
Fresh Basil Leaves- 4 tablespoons 

Directions:

Preheat the oven to 425 F. Mix the 2 tablespoons olive oil and garlic in a small bowl, and keep aside.

Roll out the pizza dough, divided into two portions, on a lightly floured surface into 8-10 inch rounds. With a fork, poke the dough round a few times to allow for even baking. Brush lightly with some of the garlic oil.

Top the dough rounds with the grated mozzarella cheese and goat cheese, leaving ½ inch around the border. Dollop spoonfuls of the ricotta cheese on the pizza. Top with the tomato slices and fresh basil leaves, and sprinkle the dried oregano, salt, and pepper. Drizzle remaining olive oil and minced garlic on both pizzas. 

Transfer to the rack in the center of oven. I used a pizza stone to bake my pizza- a metal baking pan brushed with olive oil works amazingly well too! Bake pizza until crust is golden brown and cheese melts, about 15-18 minutes. Transfer the pizza to a cutting board, and let stand for 5 minutes before slicing. 

Serve and Enjoy!

*Note: If you decide to use the pizza dough from my recipe, then double the recipe to make two pizzas!

**Note: If you want to make two pizzas, start preparing the second pizza with toppings, cheese, etc no more than 10 minutes before it gets transferred into the oven. Leaving the pizza standing with the oil and toppings will cause the pizza to bake unevenly and come out a little soggy. If you want to prepare all of the pizzas beforehand, place the pizzas in the freezer before baking.

 

 

 

Margherita Pizza

We all know there's nothing better than fresh homemade pizza. My friend Sam Miller and I finally concocted an Italian masterpiece and Voila! Thus was born the impeccably crisp, yet chewy, canvas for a beautiful and flavorful tomato sauce, fresh mozzarella, and lush basil.

With the aromatic notes from the basil, and light flavor from the creamy mozzarella, we found the Chianti as the perfect Margherita pizza wine pairing. It was subtle and absolutely refreshing!

Yield: 1 (10 inch) pizza 

Ingredients:

For the dough:

  • 1 (1/4 ounce) package active dry yeast
  • 1 3/4 cups all purpose flour, divided
  • 1 cup warm water, divided
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 tablespoon olive oil

For the tomato sauce:

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 (14 ounce) can crushed red tomatoes
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 small white onion, chopped
  • 1/2 teaspoon sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon red chilli powder or paprika 
  • 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Toppings:

  • 8 ounces fresh mozzarella, cut into 1/4-inch thick slices
  • 6-8 fresh basil leaves

Directions:

  1. Stir together yeast, 1 tablespoon flour, and 1/4 cup warm water in a large bowl, and set aside for 5 minutes until surface appears creamy. 
  2. Add 1 1/2 cups flour, the remaining 3/4 cup water, salt, and oil. Add the remaining flour slowly until the dough begins to pull away from the side of the bowl. 
  3. Knead on a flat floured surface, until the dough is smooth and elastic. Form into a ball, and put in a bowl covered with a damp towel. Let the dough rise for about 45 minutes- 1 hour. 
  4. Make the tomato sauce while the dough rises. Mash the canned tomatoes to make a chunky puree. 
  5. Over low-medium heat, in a small heavy saucepan, cook the onions in the olive oil until translucent. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, and light golden brown. Add the tomato puree, sugar, red chilli, oregano, thyme, and salt and simmer, uncovered, until the sauce thickens. Stir occasionally. 
  6. Preheat the oven to 450F. 
  7. Dust the dough with a little bit of flour, and transfer to a pizza pan, or large baking sheet. Pat out dough evenly, and stretch into a 10-12 inch round, reflouring if necessary. 
  8. Spread the sauce over the dough, leaving a 1/2 inch border. Arrange the mozzarella slices on top. 
  9. Slide the pizza pan/sheet into the oven (or pizza stone) and bake until the dough is crisp and browned, and the mozzarella is golden and bubbling, about 12-15 minutes. 
  10. Top the pizza with the basil leaves, and place it back again to broil for 1 minute (Note* Don't broil for too long, otherwise pizza will be burnt on the top). 
  11. Transfer the pizza to a cutting board, and let cool for 5 minutes. 
  12. Slice and serve!

Shrimp and Grits

It's Mardi Gras time and who doesn't like Southern flavors in their kitchen. This weekend, I'm sharing my recipe for Cajun shrimp seared in a beer butter sauce served with jalapeño and manchego cheese corn grits. Of course, to top it all off, you can't forget about that sunny side up! 

You'd be lying if this picture didn't make you drool. 

image.jpg

Yield: Makes 6 servings

Ingredients:

Grits:

1 1/2 cups corn grits (or polenta)
4 cups water
1 cup grated manchego cheese
1 jalapeño, seeded, chopped
1/4 cup heavy cream
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
salt and pepper to taste

Shrimp:

2 teaspoons paprika
1 teaspoon garlic powder
2 teaspoons dried oregano
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
2 teaspoons cajun spice seasoning (optional)
1 1/2 pound uncooked large shrimp, peeled, deveined
3 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons butter, divided
1 1/3 cup beer (my personal favorite, Stella Artois)
1/2 cup chicken stock, divided
2 tablespoons green onions, chopped
1 small red onion
1/4 cup heavy cream
salt, pepper

6 eggs (optional)

Preparation:

For the Grits:

Bring 4 cups water to a simmer in a large saucepan. Gradually add the grits and stir constantly. Bring heat to medium, and gently simmer until grits begin to thicken. Continue cooking, stirring often, until grits are tender. Stir in the cheese, butter, jalapeño, then cream. Season with salt and crushed black pepper. Set aside and keep warm. 

For the shrimp:

Season the shrimp with the paprika, garlic powder, dried oregano, salt, black pepper, and cajun seasoning. Heat a large sauté pan over medium-high heat. Add minced garlic and 1 tablespoon butter, and stir until the butter melts. Add the seasoned shrimp, and when the garlic begins to turn brown, add 3/4 cup of the beer and 1/4 cup of the chicken stock. Simmer until the shrimp is cooked through, about 3 minutes. 

Remove the shrimp from the pan, keeping the remaining sauce in the pan. Add the green onion and red onion, and 1 tablespoon butter. Cook until the onion is soft, about 5 minutes. Add the remaining beer and chicken stock, and cook for 2 minutes. Stir in the cream and return the shrimp to the pan. Cook on low-medium heat until the sauce has reduced slightly, about 5 minutes. Stir well and season to taste with salt and crushed black pepper. 

Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add butter or cooking spray and swirl to melt and cover the bottom of the pan. Crack eggs into pan and cook until whites are set but yolks are still runny, about 2 minutes on one side. Do not turn the add. 

Divide the grits among plates, and spoon the shrimp mixture into the center of the grits. Top with the egg and serve.

Prep Time: 15 minutes
Inactive Prep Time: approx. 4 hours

Servings :

Ingredients:

For the Crust:
½ stick butter at room temperature
10 chocolate graham crackers
3 tablespoons almonds

For the Filling:
¾ cup of heavy cream
1/3 cup honey
½ tablespoon vanilla extract
2 cups (12 ounces) of chocolate morsels/chips

Directions:

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

Break the graham crackers into little chunks and place into a food processor along with the almonds and butter. Process until the mixture forms into fine crumbs or like powder crumbs.
Butter the bottom of a spring-foam pan. Press the crust mixture into the bottom of the buttered pan until it forms an even layer for the bottom of the tart crust. Bake for 12-15 minutes and then keep aside and cool.

In a small saucepan, whisk the heavy cream, honey and vanilla until everything has been well mixed. Bring the mixture to just below a boil.

15-20 strawberries

1-1 ½ cups (6-9 ounces) semisweet chocolate morsels
½ cup (3 ounces) white chocolate morsels
