Time 4h20m

Yield 18 pizza pockets

Number Of Ingredients 22

2 teaspoons instant or active dry yeast
8 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons kosher salt
2/3 cup olive oil, plus more for coating the bowl
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 onion, diced
8 ounces white button mushrooms, sliced
8 ounces brown button mushrooms, sliced
1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme
1/4 cup white wine
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
8 ounces fresh mozzarella, thinly sliced
4 ounces goat cheese, crumbled
8 ounces Italian sausage
Olive oil, for browning sausage
1 jar marinara sauce
8 ounces fresh mozzarella, thinly sliced
4 ounces pepperoni
4 ounces Canadian bacon
1 egg, beaten

Steps:

  • For the dough: Sprinkle the yeast over 3 cups warm (not lukewarm) water. Let stand for a few minutes.
  • In a mixer, combine the flour and salt. With the mixer running on low speed (with a paddle attachment), drizzle in the olive oil until combined with the flour. Next, pour in the yeast/water mixture and mix until just combined and the dough comes together. (The dough will be sticky.) Form the dough into a ball.
  • Coat a separate mixing bowl with a light drizzle of olive oil and toss the dough in the olive oil to coat. Cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap and set it aside for 1 hour to rise. Then put it in the fridge to chill for 2 hours or longer. (The dough is much easier to work with when very cold.)
  • For the mushroom version: Add the olive oil to a pan with the heat on medium and saute the garlic and onions for about a minute. Add the mushrooms and thyme and saute for 3 minutes. Add the white wine and reduce for a couple of minutes until most of the liquid is gone. Season with salt and pepper. Let cool to room temperature.
  • For the meat version: Crumble the Italian sausage into a skillet with some olive oil and brown until cooked through, 5 minutes. Let cool.
  • When you are ready to make the pizza pockets, take half the dough and roll it out into a large rectangle. Cut into 18 rectangles with a rectangular cutter. Put 9 of the rectangles onto a baking sheet and top them with the fillings for the meat version: some marinara sauce, mozzarella, sausage, pepperoni and Canadian bacon. Lay the other 9 rectangles on top and crimp the edges with a fork. Brush with the beaten egg. Put into the freezer to flash-freeze for 30 minutes.
  • Repeat with the other half of the dough and the fillings for the mushroom version: some mozzarella, goat cheese and the sauteed mushrooms.
  • When the pockets have been flash-frozen, transfer to ziptop bags and store in the freezer.
  • When ready to cook, place on a baking sheet and bake at 450 degrees F for 10 to 12 minutes.

WHOLE-MULTIGRAIN PIZZA DOUGH



Whole-Multigrain Pizza Dough image

Not all multigrain products are equal; in fact, most are made with refined white flour. For this dough we used white whole-wheat flour, a relative of the red wheat variety but with the same nutritional value, and we added quinoa and whole-grain bulgur wheat for extra fiber. We also added seeds, like sunflower and flax; the flaxseeds are ground to make them easier to digest and more nutritionally available.

Time 3h10m

Yield 1 pound pizza dough

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 tablespoons whole-grain bulgur
2 tablespoons quinoa
1 tablespoon flaxseeds
3/4 cup warm water (100 to 110 degrees F)
1 teaspoon agave syrup or honey
1 teaspoon active dry yeast
1 1/2 cups white whole-wheat flour (6 ounces), plus more for kneading
Kosher salt
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon toasted sunflower seeds

Steps:

  • Bring 2 cups of water to a boil in a small pot. Add the bulgur and quinoa and simmer for 10 minutes. Transfer the grains to a fine-mesh strainer and hold under cold water to stop the cooking. Let the grains drain in the strainer for 15 minutes, then spread them out on a thick layer of paper towels to absorb any extra moisture. Meanwhile, coarsely grind the flaxseeds in a spice grinder, just to break them open.
  • Stir together the warm water, agave and yeast in a measuring cup or small bowl. Let sit until a small layer of foam develops at the top, 3 to 5 minutes. (If this doesn't happen, discard and try again with new yeast.)
  • Whisk the flour and 1/2 teaspoon salt together in a medium bowl; add the foamy yeast mixture and olive oil and mix together with a stiff rubber spatula. When the dough starts to come together, mix in the cooked grains, ground flaxseeds and sunflower seeds; form the dough into a uniform ball in the center of the bowl. Be sure to scrape and use any dough stuck to the sides. The dough will be very sticky at this stage. Cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap and keep in a warm place until the dough has doubled in size, about 2 hours.
  • Lightly dust a baking sheet with flour. Sprinkle a generous amount of flour on a clean, dry work surface. Scrape the dough onto the floured surface and knead for a couple of minutes, working in just enough flour to make the dough less sticky but still moist to the touch. Flour your hands periodically to prevent sticking. Form the dough into one single ball or divide it into smaller balls. Place the dough ball(s) on the prepared baking sheet. Cover loosely with plastic wrap or a dish towel and let the dough rest for 30 minutes. After 30 minutes, the dough can be shaped and cooked as desired.
