Pesto Pizza
Cultural Context
Pesto pizza hails from the Liguria region of Italy, where pesto originated. Traditionally made with fresh basil, garlic, pine nuts, and olive oil, this vibrant sauce adds a unique twist to classic pizza. In Italy, it's often enjoyed as a quick meal or a casual dish shared among friends. Today, variations of pesto pizza have gained popularity worldwide, with many adding their own toppings and ingredients, making it a versatile favorite in pizzerias and homes alike.
pine nuts
๐ฅHealthier: walnuts
๐ฐCheaper: sunflower seeds
Walnuts provide a similar texture and flavor at a lower cost.
mozzarella cheese
๐ฅHealthier: part-skim mozzarella
๐ฐCheaper: provolone cheese
Provolone is often less expensive and still melts well.
parmesan cheese
๐ฅHealthier: nutritional yeast
๐ฐCheaper: grated pecorino
Pecorino is a flavorful alternative that can be more affordable.
pesto sauce
๐ฅHealthier: homemade pesto
๐ฐCheaper: store-bought basil pesto
Homemade can be fresher and healthier, while store-bought is convenient.
To make a pesto pizza, you need a beautiful fresh ball of pizza dough!
Pre-heat your oven to 250 degrees Celsius (482F) and dust the kitchen bench or your wooden board with plain flour.
The best way to stretch out the dough is by using the tips of your fingers and pressing down into the ball, until it starts to spread out, at which point you then use the palm of your hand to stretch it into a circular like shape.
Next, open your jar of pesto and scoop out a generous amount, putting it on to the dough and then spreading it evenly all over to create the delicious pesto pizza base.
Now, using your hands, rip pieces of buffalo mozzarella and place them all over your pesto pizza dough, making sure there is some on each slice!
Sprinkle parmesan cheese over the top โ using as little or as much as you like!
Move the pizza tray close to your dough and carefully stretch the pesto pizza on top of it before drizzling a small amount of extra virgin olive oil over the top.
This pesto pizza recipe allows for approx. 7 minutes baking time โ but keep an eye on it! Cooking time all depends on your pizza dough thickness and how hot the oven gets.
Remove the tray from your oven and place a burrata cheese in the middle, spreading slices of mortadella all around the pesto pizza.
Add a drizzle of pesto to the top of your burrata and then sprinkle crushed pistachio nuts all over it.
Make a slice in the burrata and press some of the cheese out of it.
