SMOKIN SALMON PIZZA

• 1-2 teaspoons trout roe or other type of roe
• 2-3 tablespoons soy sauce
• 3 asparagus spears (a combination of green and white is good)
• 1 Our Favorite Dough, 9 ounces (260 g)
• 5 ounces (140 g) mozzarella di bufala, shredded
• 2 ounces (60 g) smoked salmon, thinly sliced
• 7-8 baby spinach leaves (alternative: 3-4 regular spinach leaves)
• Sorrel leaves or any baby lettuce leaves
• 1 tablespoon Dill Oil (see recipe below)
• Extra virgin olive oil, for sprinkling
• Freshly ground black pepper, to taste

1. l. Place a baking stone in the oven, and preheat to 500F (260C) or higher for 1 hour.
2. Place the roe in a small bowl, and cover with the soy sauce.
3. Let stand for 30 minutes.
4. Use a potato peeler to trim the root ends of the asparagus, and cut each piece in half.
5. Fill a saucepan with water, and bring to a boil.
6. Cook the root ends of the asparagus in the boiling water for 2 minutes (less if the pieces are on the thin side).
7. Add the asparagus tops, and cook about a minute more, until just tender.
8. Pour off the water, and let the asparagus cool.
9. Slice each piece of asparagus in half lengthwise.
10. Set aside.
11. Stretch the pizza dough to a diameter of 12 inches (30 cm).
12. Spread the mozzarella over the dough, leaving a 1-inch (3-cm) border.
13. Bake the pizza on the baking stone until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbling.
14. Remove the pizza from the oven, and place it on a plate.
15. Distribute the asparagus, smoked salmon, spinach, and sorrel leaves over the pizza.
16. Drain the soy sauce from the roe, and distribute the roe over the pizza.
17. Sprinkle the Dill Oil and extra virgin olive oil over the pizza.
18. Add black pepper, and serve.
19. Tips
20. Another idea is to slice the raw asparagus on a mandoline.
21. If you do this, your cooking time will be reduced to just a few seconds.
22. You can make this pizza without the Dill Oil.
23. Replace the oil with some fresh dill.
