Balsamic Vinegar and Prosciutto Pizza
How to make pizza with balsamic vinegar and prosciutto
Yield: 1 pizza
Materials
- 1 pizza dough
- 1/3 cup pizza sauce
- 150 g prosciutto
- 8 slices fresh mozzarella
- 1/4 red pepper cut into strips
- 1/8 cup fresh basil cut into strips
- 1 tbsp balsamic vinegar
Instructions
- Prepare your pizza dough. Let it rise and roll out your dough when you're ready to bake your pizza.
- Preheat the oven to 500 degrees F.
- Spread pizza sauce on your pizza dough using the back of a spoon. Spread the pizza sauce right to the edges of the pizza and add more pizza sauce if necessary.
- Place fresh mozzarella on the pizza in sections. Do not cover the whole pizza in fresh mozzarella. You don't need that much. Use 5-10 slices depending on how big your pizza is. You can refer to the pizza picture for reference of how much mozzarella you'll need for your pizza.
- Add strips of red pepper around the pizza.
- Take a piece of prosciutto and rip it into strips that are 1-2 cm thick. You can place them on the pizza and fold them once over itself. Place the prosciutto in this way all around the pizza.
- Bake the pizza for 10-13 minutes at 500 degrees F. The mozzarella will turn a little brown when it's finished baking. The crust should turn light brown it's finished.
- Remove the pizza from the oven and place on a wooden cutting board.
- Add strips of basil to the pizza.
- Drizzle 1 tbsp of balsamic vinegar onto the pizza.
- Serve.
