PIZZA WITH SMOKED SALMON AND CAVIAR

Categories     appetizer

Time 1h35m

Yield 4 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

3 to 4 ounces smoked salmon
Pizza Dough, recipe follows
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 medium red onion, cut into julienne strips
1/4 bunch fresh dill, minced, plus 4 small sprigs, for garnish
1/3 cup sour cream or creme fraiche
Freshly ground pepper
4 heaping tablespoons domestic golden (whitefish) caviar
1 heaping teaspoon black caviar
1 package active dry or fresh yeast
1 teaspoon honey
1 cup warm water (105 to 115 degrees)
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil, plus additional for brushing

Steps:

  • Before you are ready to bake the pizzas, preheat the oven with a pizza stone inside for 30 minutes to 500 degrees F.
  • Cut the salmon into paper-thin slices. Reserve.
  • Roll or stretch the dough into 4 (8-inch) circles. Place the pizzas on a lightly floured wooden peel. Brush the center of each pizza to within 1 inch of the edge with olive oil and sprinkle it with some of the red onion. Slide the pizza onto the stone and bake 8 to 12 minutes or until crust is golden brown. Remember that the oven is very hot and be careful as you place the pizza into and out of the oven.
  • Mix the dill with the sour cream or creme fraiche and freshly ground pepper, to taste. Transfer the pizzas to heated dinner plates and spread them with the sour cream mixture.
  • Divide the salmon, and arrange decoratively over the cream. Place a spoonful of golden caviar in the center of each pizza, then spoon a little of the black caviar into the center of the golden caviar.
  • In a small bowl, dissolve the yeast and honey in 1/4-cup warm water.
  • In a mixer fitted with a dough hook, combine the flour and the salt. Add the oil, yeast mixture, and the remaining 3/4 cup of water and mix on low speed until the dough comes cleanly away from the sides of the bowl and clusters around the dough hook, about 5 minutes. (The pizza dough can also be made in a food processor fitted with the steel blade. Pulse once or twice, add the remaining ingredients, and process until the dough begins to form a ball).
  • Turn the dough out onto a clean work surface and knead by hand 2 or 3 minutes longer. The dough should be smooth and firm. Cover the dough with a clean, damp towel and let it rise in a warm spot for about 30 minutes. (When ready, the dough will stretch as it is lightly pulled).
  • Divide the dough into 4 balls, about 6 ounces each. Work each ball by pulling down the sides and tucking under the bottom of the ball. Repeat 4 or 5 times. Then on a smooth, unfloured surface, roll the ball under the palm of your hand until the top of the dough is smooth and firm, about 1 minute. Cover the dough with a damp towel and let rest 15 to 20 minutes. At this point, the balls can be wrapped in plastic and refrigerated for up to 2 days.
  • To prepare each pizza, dip the ball of dough into flour, shake off the excess flour, place the dough on a clean, lightly floured surface, and start to stretch the dough. Press down on the center, spreading the dough into an 8-inch circle, with the outer border a little thicker than the inner circle. If you find this difficult to do, use a small rolling pin to roll out the dough.
  • Yield: 4 (8-inch) pizzas

WOLFGANG PUCK'S PIZZAS WITH SMOKED SALMON AND CAVIAR



Wolfgang Puck's Pizzas With Smoked Salmon and Caviar image

Although New York has long had pizza bragging rights, the modern American version of pizza with toppings that went beyond basil and mozzarella began in Wolfgang Puck's kitchen at Spago in Beverly Hills in the 1980s and started a California pizza trend that spread far and wide.

SMOKED SALMON PIZZAS



Smoked Salmon Pizzas image

Provided by Ina Garten

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h50m

Yield Makes 6 small pizzas; serves 12 for appetizers, 6 for lunch

Number Of Ingredients 18

1 1/4 cups warm (100 to 110 degrees) water
2 (1/4-ounce) packages active dry yeast
1 tablespoon honey
Good olive oil
4 cups all-purpose flour, divided, plus extra for kneading
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Fine cornmeal
8 ounces Italian mascarpone
1 tablespoon minced fresh chives
1/2 to 3/4 pound thinly sliced smoked salmon, preferably Scottish or Norwegian
Mesclun with Lemon Dill Vinaigrette, for topping
1/4 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice (2 lemons)
1/2 cup good olive oil
1 tablespoon minced fresh dill
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
3/4 pound mesclun greens
Minced fresh chives, for garnish

Steps:

  • For the dough, combine the water, yeast, honey, and 3 tablespoons of olive oil in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the dough hook. Add 3 cups of the flour, then 2 teaspoons of salt and mix for about 10 minutes, slowly adding up to 1 more cup of flour to just keep the dough from sticking to the bowl. When the dough is ready, turn it out onto a floured board and knead by hand a dozen times. It should be smooth and elastic. Brush a medium bowl with olive oil, place the dough in the bowl, and turn it several times to cover lightly with oil. Cover the bowl with a clean, damp kitchen towel and set aside at room temperature for 30 minutes, until doubled in size.
  • Divide the dough into 6 equal parts and roll each one into a smooth ball. Place the balls on a sheet pan and cover them with the damp towel. Allow the dough to rest for 10 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 500 degrees. Sprinkle 3 sheet pans with cornmeal.
  • If you've chilled the dough, leave it at room temperature for 30 minutes to allow it to come to room temperature. Press each piece of dough into a circle with your fingertips. Stretch the balls of dough into rough 8-inch circles and place them on the prepared sheet pans.
  • Brush the dough with olive oil and bake for 12 to 15 minutes, until lightly browned and crisp, rotating the pans to bake evenly. Set aside to cool slightly.
  • Whisk the mascarpone with 1 tablespoon of the chives, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Spread the mixture on the pizzas, and place one layer of smoked salmon on top.
  • Place the pizzas on a serving board, top them with dressed mesclun, and serve immediately.
  • Whisk together the lemon juice, olive oil, dill, salt, and pepper. Toss the mesclun greens with enough of the vinaigrette to moisten. Sprinkle with chives.
