Four-Cheese Pizza
- 1 cup warm water (100u0b0 to 110u0b0), divided
- 10 ounce bread flour (about 2 cups plus 2 tablespoons)
- 1 package dry yeast (about 2 1/4 teaspoons)
- 7 teaspoons olive oil, divided
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- Cooking spray
- 1 tablespoon yellow cornmeal
- 2 tablespoons chopped garlic
- 1/3 cup (about 3 ounces) part-skim ricotta cheese (such as Calabro)
- 1 1/4 ounces taleggio cheese, thinly sliced
- 1/4 cup (1 ounce) crumbled Gorgonzola cheese
- 1/4 cup (1 ounce) finely grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives
- Pour 3/4 cup warm water in the bowl of a stand mixer with dough hook attached. Weigh or lightly spoon flour into dry measuring cups and spoons; level with a knife. Add flour to 3/4 cup water; mix until combined. Cover and let stand 20 minutes. Combine remaining 1/4 cup water and yeast in a small bowl; let stand 5 minutes or until bubbly. Add yeast mixture, 4 teaspoons oil, and salt to flour mixture; mix 5 minutes or until a soft dough forms. Place dough in a large bowl coated with cooking spray; cover surface of dough with plastic wrap lightly coated with cooking spray. Refrigerate 24 hours.
- Remove dough from refrigerator. Let stand, covered, 1 hour or until dough comes to room temperature. Punch dough down. Press dough out to a 12-inch circle on a lightly floured baking sheet, without raised sides, sprinkled with cornmeal. Crimp edges to form a 1/2-inch border. Cover dough loosely with plastic wrap.
- Position an oven rack in the lowest setting. Place a pizza stone on lowest rack. Preheat oven to 550u0b0. Preheat stone 30 minutes before baking dough.
- Remove plastic wrap from dough. Combine remaining 1 tablespoon oil and garlic; gently brush garlic mixture evenly over dough, leaving a 1/2-inch border. Spread ricotta evenly over dough; arrange taleggio and Gorgonzola evenly over ricotta. Top with Parmigiano-Reggiano. Slide pizza onto preheated pizza stone, using a spatula as a guide. Bake at 550u0b0 for 10 minutes or until crust is golden. Cut pizza into 10 wedges; sprinkle with chives.
