Steps:
- Sprinkle the yeast over 3/4 cup warm (not lukewarm) water in a bowl and leave to sit for a bit.
- In a mixer, add the flour and 1/2 teaspoon salt, and with the mixer running on low speed (with the paddle attachment), slowly pour in the olive oil and keep going until it's mixed through. Next, pour in the yeast/water mixture and mix until just combined.
- Coat a separate mixing bowl with a light drizzle of olive oil, tip the dough in and form it into a ball. Toss to coat the dough ball in the olive oil, then cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap and allow the dough to rise for at least 1 hour, or up to 3 or 4 days.
- Arrange the oven rack in the lowest position and preheat the oven to 500 degrees F. Drizzle a large baking sheet with olive oil.
- Roll out the pizza dough as thinly as possible and place it on the baking sheet. Drizzle over some extra-virgin olive oil, sprinkle over some salt and pepper and place the mozzarella slices all over the dough.
- Bake until the crust is golden and the cheese is bubbly, 12 to 15 minutes.
- Put the arugula, whole basil leaves and parsley in a bowl and toss with the extra-virgin olive oil and balsamic vinegar. Scatter over the pizza, sprinkle with grated Parmesan and serve.

PIZZA WITH GARLIC AND OLIVE OIL
Steps:
- At least 45 minutes before baking pizza, put a pizza stone or 4 to 6 unglazed "quarry" tiles arranged close together on oven rack in lowest position in oven and preheat oven to highest setting (500°-550°F).
- Finely chop garlic and in a small bowl combine with oil, oregano, red pepper flakes, and coarse salt.
- On a lightly floured surface pat out dough evenly with your fingers, keeping hands flat and lifting and turning dough over several times, into a 9-inch round. (Do not handle dough more than necessary. If dough is sticky, dust it lightly with flour.)
- Dust a baker's peel or rimless baking sheet with flour and carefully transfer dough to it. Jerk peel or baking sheet once or twice and, if dough is sticking, lift dough and sprinkle flour underneath it, reshaping dough if necessary. Working quickly, top dough with oil mixture, spreading with back of a spoon to within 1/2 inch of edge.
- Line up far edge of peel or baking sheet with far edge of stone or tiles and tilt peel or baking sheet, jerking it gently to start pizza moving. Once edge of pizza touches stone or tiles, carefully pull back peel or baking sheet, completely transferring pizza to stone or tiles (do not move pizza). Bake pizza 6 to 7 minutes, or until dough is crisp and browned, and transfer with a metal spatula to a cutting board.
- Cut pizza into wedges and serve immediately.

Tips:
- Use fresh herbs for the best flavor. If you don't have fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs, but use half the amount.
- Use a variety of herbs to create a complex flavor. Some good combinations include basil, oregano, and thyme; rosemary, sage, and garlic; or marjoram, savory, and mint.
- Use a good quality olive oil. The flavor of the oil will come through in the final product, so don't skimp on this ingredient.
- Let the oil infuse for at least 30 minutes before using it. This will give the herbs time to release their flavor into the oil.
- You can use herb oil on pizza, pasta, vegetables, and meat. It's also a great addition to salad dressings and marinades.
Conclusion:
Herb oil is a versatile ingredient that can be used to add flavor to a variety of dishes. It's easy to make and can be stored in the refrigerator for up to two weeks. So next time you're looking for a way to add some extra flavor to your food, try using herb oil. You won't be disappointed!
