White and Red Pizza

White and Red Pizza

DOUGH:
1 package (2 ¼ teaspoons) active dry yeast
1 cup warm water
1 cup ice-cold water
1 tablespoon honey
1 tablespoon kosher salt
2 tablespoons olive oil
about 5 ¼ to 5 ½ cups bread flour

I personally like the recipe for my hummus tart for pizza crusts best found from Ecurry (PS this is my one of our favorite recipes)
OR

CRUST:

2 cups all purpose flour

1/3 cup + 2.5 tablespoons olive oil (I have used Rosemary Infused Olive Oil)

1/4 cup + 1.5 tablespoons  very cold club soda (use a little bit more or less to make a soft but non sticky dough)

1 teaspoon salt

Freshly ground black pepper

Dried herbs, (optional) – any kind you like


White Sauce: from Food.com

• 2 tablespoons butter
• 3 tablespoons flour
• 1 cup milk
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/8 teaspoon pepper
• 1 garlic clove, minced
• 2 tablespoons fresh basil, minced
• 1/2 cup parmigiano-reggiano cheese, shredded

Directions:

1. 1
   Heat butter in a small saucepan. Add flour and stir until thoroughly mixed.
2. 2
   Slowly whisk in milk, adding gradually. Stir in remaining ingredients. Will thicken upon standing.
   
   
   Notes: I did a mixture of all purpose and wheat flour. I also put half in the frig and let the other half rise at room temperature covered with a towel. 
   
   
   
   
    Veggies:
   
   
   1 Red Bell Pepper
   1 Onion thinly sliced
   1 Cup of Grape tomatoes cut into quarters
   1 Cup of peppadews sliced *(the pepadews make this pizza. They aren't so common here but they are delicious. I know most whole foods carry them)
   
   
   
   Mix all together in a bowl
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   -Preheat oven to 400 or 500 depending upon which crust you are using. 
   -Roll out the cruse the desired thickness (if using hummus tart crust pre bake crust then assemble) 
   -Add sauce
   -mix all veggies in a bowl and the spread evenly over the pizza
   -add cheese til your hearts content. 
   
   
   If using the hummus tart bake for an additional 10 minutes
   If using the tradition dough preheat over to 500. Bake for 10-12 minutes. 
   
   
   
   
   
   Please enjoy :)
