Description
A golden, blistered pizza topped with earthy morel mushrooms, crisp asparagus, melty mozzarella, and salty Parmesan. It’s a springtime celebration perfect for wine nights or cozy dinners.
Ingredients
250 g pizza dough
100 g morel mushrooms (fresh or rehydrated)
100 g asparagus spears, trimmed
150 g mozzarella cheese, shredded
30 g Parmesan cheese, grated
2 tbsp olive oil
1 clove garlic, minced (optional)
½ tsp salt
¼ tsp black pepper
Instructions
1. Preheat your oven to 500°F (260°C) with a pizza stone or steel inside.
2. On a floured surface, stretch or roll the dough to a 12-inch round. Transfer it to parchment or a floured peel.
3. Toss the morels and asparagus with olive oil, salt, pepper, and garlic if using.
4. Brush the dough lightly with olive oil. Sprinkle mozzarella over it, then arrange the morels and asparagus. Top with Parmesan.
5. Slide the pizza onto the hot stone or steel. Bake for 8–10 minutes until golden and bubbly.
6. Remove from the oven, drizzle with a little olive oil or extra Parmesan. Slice and serve hot.
Notes
Let the dough rest at room temperature 30 minutes before stretching for best texture.
If using dried morels, soak them in warm water 20–30 minutes, then pat dry.
For extra flavor, finish with lemon zest or a drizzle of truffle oil after baking.
