White Cheese Pizza with Ramps
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 teaspoons active dry yeast
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon sugar
- 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons warm water
- 10 ramps or medium scallions
- Extra-virgin olive oil, for brushing
- 1 cup coarsely grated fresh mozzarella cheese (4 ounces); see Note
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 1/4 cup freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese
- In a large bowl, whisk the flour together with the yeast, salt and sugar.
- Pour in the water and stir well with a wooden spoon to form a dough.
- Scrape the dough out onto a lightly floured work surface and knead for a few minutes until smooth.
- Transfer the pizza dough to a lightly oiled large bowl.
- Cover with plastic wrap or a damp towel and let stand in a warm place until the pizza dough has doubled in bulk, about 1 1/2 hours.
- Set a pizza stone on the bottom or on the bottom shelf of the oven and preheat to 500 for at least 30 minutes.
- Bring a medium saucepan of salted water to a boil.
- Blanch the ramps until they are bright green but still al dente, about 1 minute.
- Drain, pat dry and cut into 1-inch lengths.
- Punch down the pizza dough and transfer it to a lightly floured work surface.
- Roll out the dough to a 12-inch round, about 1/8 inch thick.
- Transfer the dough to a lightly floured pizza peel or an inverted baking sheet.
- Brush the dough with olive oil and sprinkle on the grated mozzarella in an even layer.
- Scatter the blanched ramps over the mozzarella and season lightly with salt and pepper.
- Top the pizza with the Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese.
- Slide the pizza from the peel onto the hot stone.
- Bake for about 8 minutes, until the cheese has melted and the pizza crust is browned and crisp on the bottom.
- Transfer the pizza to a work surface, cut into wedges and serve right away.
