CARAMELIZED ONION & FIG PIZZA



Caramelized Onion & Fig Pizza image

This is a sensational variation on traditional pizza. It's creamy, sweet and a little salty, with a buttery crunch from the pine nuts. I like to serve it with mixed baby greens salad and a vinaigrette. -Connie Balbach, Bemidji, Minnesota

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 1/2 cups all-purpose stone ground whole wheat flour
1/4 ounce sachet dried yeast
1 teaspoon salt
4 tablespoons olive oil
20 ounces red onions, halved, thinly sliced
4 tablespoons picked thyme leaves
4 garlic cloves, crushed
2 tablespoons brown sugar
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
4 1/2 ounces goat cheese, crumbled

Steps:

  • To make the pizza crust, place the flour, yeast and salt in a bowl. Add 3/4 cup lukewarm water and use a flat-bladed knife to mix until just combined. Turn out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth. Place in a light oiled bowl, cover with plastic wrap and set aside in a warm place for 1 hour.

Reduce heat to medium-low and cook, stirring occasionally, for 23-30 minutes, or until the onions are very soft. Add the sugar and vinegar, and increase the heat to high. Cook for a further 5 minutes or until the onions start to caramelize. Set aside to cool completely.

PIZZA WITH CARAMELIZED ONIONS, FIGS, BACON AND BLUE CHEESE



Pizza With Caramelized Onions, Figs, Bacon and Blue Cheese image

Here is a recipe for pizza that calls to mind - at least this mind - the joys of car travel through southeastern France, where pizzas such as this are available at all the imaginary cafes in small towns near the Italian border. It certainly tastes as if it comes from that region and, if you close your eyes as you eat it, you can almost imagine yourself halfway through a drive from Aix to Turin. The time spent caramelizing the onions is more than worth it, so do it the day before you intend to make the pie. Which is when, as it happens, you should make the dough as well. And we have a recipe for that as well - a version adapted from the team behind the magical Roberta's Pizza in Brooklyn.

Time 1h30m

Yield Serves 2

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 tablespoons butter
1 large Spanish onion
2 teaspoons fresh thyme leaves
2 bay leaves
Kosher salt
4 thick slices bacon, cut into 1/4-inch thick batons
1 ball pizza dough
Flour, for dusting surface
12 dried mission figs, stems trimmed, cut into quarters or small pieces
3/4 cup crumbled Gorgonzola
Extra-virgin olive oil, to drizzle
Freshly cracked black pepper

Steps:

  • At least 45 minutes before cooking, preheat the oven and pizza stone to 550 degrees.
  • Melt the butter in a large sauté pan over high heat. Add the onions, thyme and bay leaves. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring often, until the onions begin to wilt. Reduce the heat to medium-low and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions have softened and turn a deep, golden brown, about 25 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Remove the bay leaves and transfer the onions to a small bowl.
  • Place the bacon in the pan and set over high heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until brown and crispy. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the bacon to a small bowl.
  • Place the pizza dough on a heavily floured surface and stretch and pull, using your hands or a rolling pin, into about a 14-inch round. Place on a lightly floured pizza peel or rimless baking sheet. Cover with the toppings, careful not to press on the dough and weigh it down: the caramelized onions first, then the figs and bacon, and finally the Gorgonzola, leaving roughly a 1/2 inch border. Shake the pizza peel slightly to make sure the dough is not sticking. Carefully slide the pizza directly onto the baking stone in one quick, forward-and-back motion. Cook until the crust has browned on the bottom and the top is bubbling and browning in spots, about 7 minutes. Drizzle with a little olive oil and some cracked black pepper. Serve hot. Makes 1 pizza.

Tips:

  • If you don't have fresh figs, you can use dried figs. Just soak them in warm water for 30 minutes before using.
  • If you are using a store-bought pizza dough, let it come to room temperature for 30 minutes before using.
  • To make the caramelized onions, cook them over low heat until they are golden brown. This will take about 20 minutes.
  • Be careful not to overcook the pizza. The crust should be golden brown and the cheese should be melted and bubbly.

Conclusion:

This gourmet pizza is a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or meal. The combination of fresh figs, caramelized onions, and goat cheese is unique and flavorful. The pizza is also a good source of fiber and vitamins.
