Ingredients
Method
Techniques
- 1 cup warm water
- 1 tbsp dry active yeast
- 1 tbsp brown sugar
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 2 cup bread flour
- 1 tbsp salt
- 1 tsp thyme
- 1 tsp rosemary
- 1 tbsp pine nuts
- 1 tbsp Parmesan
- 5–6 whole hero tomatoes
- 3–4 tbsp Stracciatella
Combine warm water, active dry yeast, brown sugar, olive oil, bread flour and salt; mix until it comes together.
- flour
Knead by hand about 15 minutes until soft and developed; in a stand mixer it would be 2 to 3 minutes on low then 5 to 7 on medium.
- olive oil
Oil a tray, divide the dough roughly in three and shape into balls; coat top and bottom with olive oil so they do not crack or dry out.
- basil
Pick basil, thyme and rosemary and chop finely, especially the woody herbs; do not blend.
- cornmeal
Dust the bottom of a dough ball with cornmeal and flour, flour the top, and roll it out, slightly over-rolling since it shrinks back.
Rolling out the flatbread
Spread pesto edge to edge, top with the tomatoes and Stracciatella.
