Cornmeal Bread with Field Greens: Pizza e Fuie
- 2 cups yellow cornmeal
- Salt
- 1 cup hot water
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 3 cloves garlic, smashed
- 1 small dried hot red pepper
- 1 pound broccoli rabe, coarsely chopped
- 1 pound escarole, coarsely chopped
- 1 pound dandelion greens, coarsely chopped
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
- Place the cornmeal in a large bowl and add a pinch of salt.
- Add enough hot water to make the mixture, when kneaded, form into a soft dough.
- Shape it into a ball, then pat into a disc 1 1/4-inches high and 14-inches across.
- Place on a lightly oiled pizza pan and bake until golden and crusty but soft in the middle, about 45 minutes.
- In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium heat and add the garlic and pepper.
- Cook five minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Add the greens and salt, to taste, and toss to coat.
- Cover the pan and reduce the heat.
- Cook for 5 minutes, then remove the cover, and cook over high heat five minutes.
- Add water if necessary to keep the greens from drying out.
- Serve the "pizza" and greens together.
