HEART-SHAPED PIZZA FOR TWO



Heart-Shaped Pizza for Two image

With a few little tricks, you can transform a regular pepperoni pizza into a special heart-shaped treat. We take a few shortcuts, like store-bought pizza dough and sauce, so that it comes together quickly, but don't worry, we won't tell anyone it wasn't a labor of love.

Time 1h40m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 pound store-bought pizza dough
1 tablespoon olive oil, plus more for brushing
16 slices pepperoni
All-purpose flour, for dusting
1/2 cup prepared pizza sauce
1 cup shredded low-moisture mozzarella

Steps:

  • Put the pizza dough in a medium bowl and coat well with the olive oil. Cover with plastic wrap and allow to sit at room temperature for 1 hour.
  • Meanwhile, put a large inverted baking sheet on the lowest oven rack and preheat the oven to 500 degrees F.
  • Fold a pepperoni slice in half and use a pair of kitchen shears to trim the edges into the shape of half of a heart. (When you unfold the pepperoni slice, it will be a whole heart.) Repeat this process with the remaining pepperoni, then set aside.
  • Divide the pizza dough into 2 balls. On a lightly floured surface, stretch 1 ball of dough into a 10-inch round. Transfer the dough to a piece of parchment paper, then slide the parchment and dough onto a second inverted baking sheet. Use a pair of kitchen shears or a paring knife to cut the pizza dough into the shape of a large heart, discarding the dough scraps.
  • Spread half of the sauce on the dough in a thin layer and scatter half of the mozzarella on top. Top with half of the pepperoni slices. Use a pastry brush to brush the exposed edges of the dough with olive oil. Carefully slide the parchment onto the preheated baking sheet and bake until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is bubbling, 6 to 8 minutes. Let cool 1 to 2 minutes before slicing. Repeat to make a second pizza.

VALENTINO'S PIZZA CRUST

My Great grandmother worked at the original Valentino's Pizza Place in Lincoln, Ne. She was nearly 80 and her job was to put the sauce on the pizza. Today, it is a chain of restaurants, buffet style. I still remember what it was like to be in the back of that busy kitchen!

Provided by gailg

Number Of Ingredients 17

Dough: 1 package yeast
1 1/2 C water
2 T sugar
4 T olive oil
2 t salt
4 C flour
Sauce: 1-8 oz can tomato sauce
1-8 oz can tomato paste
1/8 t thyme
1 clove garlic, crushed
1/4 t rosemary
1 bay leaf
1/4 t oregano
1/4 t caraway seeds
1/2 C water (optional)
Meat: choice is yours (precooked)
Cheese: 1/3 TO 1/2 lb mozzarella and monterry jack

Steps:

  • Mix dough ingredients well; knead 8-10 minutes; rise 1-2 hours. Mix sauce ingredients in saucepan; simmer and cool. Bake at 400 degrees about 20 minutes or until golden brown.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients for the best results. This means using fresh, flavorful tomatoes, a good quality mozzarella cheese, and a flavorful olive oil.
  • Make sure to let the dough rise for the full amount of time. This will help to develop the flavor and texture of the dough.
  • When shaping the dough, be careful not to overwork it. Overworking the dough will make it tough and chewy.
  • Bake the pizza at a high temperature. This will help to create a crispy crust and prevent the pizza from becoming soggy.
  • Don't overload the pizza with toppings. Too many toppings will make the pizza soggy and difficult to cook.

Conclusion:

Making pizza at home is a great way to enjoy a delicious and affordable meal. By following these tips, you can make a pizza that is just as good as, if not better than, what you would get at a restaurant. So next time you're in the mood for pizza, give this recipe a try. You won't be disappointed.
