Gorgonzola And Mortgage Lifter Tomato Pizza
- 1 package active dry yeast (about 2 1/4 teaspoons)
- 1/3 cup warm water (100u0b0 to 110u0b0)
- 1/2 cup whole wheat flour (about 2 1/2 ounces)
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour (about 2 1/4 ounces)
- 1 tablespoon vital wheat gluten
- 1 teaspoon extravirgin olive oil
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- Cooking spray
- 1 tablespoon cornmeal
- 3/4 cup (3 ounces) shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup (2 ounces) crumbled Gorgonzola cheese
- 2 Mortgage Lifter tomatoes, cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices (about 1 pound)
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper
- Dissolve yeast in 1/3 cup warm water in a large bowl; let stand 5 minutes. Lightly spoon flours into dry measuring cups, and level with a knife. Add flours, wheat gluten, oil, and 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt; stir until a soft dough forms.
- Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead until smooth and elastic (about 3 minutes). Place dough in a bowl coated with cooking spray, turning to coat top. Cover and let rise in a warm place (85u0b0), free from drafts, 1 hour or until doubled in size. (Press two fingers into dough. If indentation remains, dough has risen enough.)
- Preheat oven to 450u0b0.
- Punch dough down. Roll dough into a 10 x 14-inch rectangle on a lightly floured surface. Place dough on a baking sheet coated with cooking spray and sprinkled with cornmeal. Cover and let rise in a warm place (85u0b0), free from drafts, 20 minutes.
- Sprinkle cheeses evenly over dough. Arrange tomato slices in a single layer over cheese. Combine basil and remaining ingredients in a bowl; sprinkle mixture evenly over tomatoes.
- Bake at 450u0b0 for 12 minutes or until crust is golden brown. Cut pizza into 8 (5 x 3 1/2-inch) rectangles.
