White Pizza with Fresh Arugula

Author: Flavelo
Recipes Vegetarian & Vegan Dishes Main Courses
The meeting of hot, baked pizza and cold, fresh salad. The peppery, nutty flavor of arugula contrasts perfectly with fatty cheeses. This pizza is about freshness: we never bake the arugula, as heat destroys its crunch and vitamins. The noblest version of the 'salad pizza' concept.

Instructions

1 ✓

Preheat oven to 430°F (220°C). Mix ricotta with salt, pepper, and crushed garlic.

Tip: This is your white 'sauce'.
2 ✓

Roll out dough, spread with ricotta, top with Parmesan and mozzarella.

Tip: The rich cheese bed supports the greens later.
3 ✓

Drizzle with oil and bake 12-15 minutes until golden.

Tip: Bake until cheese is bubbly.
4 ✓

Meanwhile, wash and thoroughly dry the arugula.

Tip: Wet salad makes pizza soggy and dressing won't stick.
5 ✓

Remove pizza, let cool 1-2 minutes, then pile fresh arugula on top.

Tip: This keeps the arugula crisp.

Recipe FAQ

Why did the arugula wilt?
You put it on too soon. Wait a minute after baking, or serve it on the side for people to top their own.
Is arugula bitter?
Depends on variety. Wild arugula is intense; cultivated is milder. A splash of lemon or balsamic helps balance it.
