Sunday Table

Instructions

Preheat oven to 425°F. Place a pizza stone or sheet pan in the oven while it preheats.

Place the pizza dough on a cutting board. Roll it out until it’s about 1/2” thick. Spread the tomato sauce over the dough, leaving a 1/2” around the edges.

Place the mozzarella, soppressata, and shallots on the pizza. Slide the pizza off of the cutting board and onto the hot pizza stone/sheet pan. Bake 15-20 minutes, or until the dough is browned and cheese is melty.

Remove the pizza from the oven. Sprinkle with parmesan and basil. Drizzle with desired amount of hot honey. Slice and serve!

Tips & Tricks (5)

Crisp Pizza Crust Secret 🍕
Preheat your pizza stone or baking sheet for at least 30 minutes to ensure a perfectly crispy, golden-brown crust that doesn't become soggy.
Hot Honey Drizzle Technique 🍯
Warm the hot honey slightly before drizzling to ensure it spreads evenly and penetrates the pizza's toppings for maximum flavor distribution.
Soppressata Prep Pro Tip 🔪
Slice soppressata paper-thin and let it come to room temperature before adding to the pizza to enhance its rich, complex flavor and ensure even cooking.
Fresh Basil Preservation 🌿
Add fresh basil leaves only after the pizza comes out of the oven to maintain their vibrant color, aroma, and delicate flavor.
Cheese Melting Mastery 🧀
Use a blend of mozzarella and a sharper cheese like Parmigiano-Reggiano to create a more complex, nuanced cheese layer that complements the soppressata.
