    List of Ingredients




    Prosciutto and Arulgula Pizza


    Yields: one 9-inch pizza

    Ingredients:

    1/2 cup small to medium arugula leaves
    2 ounces mozzarella (preferably fresh)
    all-purpose flour for dusting
    Pizza Dough for one 9-inch pizza
    1/2 cup Pizza Sauce
    3 very thin slices prosciutto


    Recipe



    Nutrition information: At least 45 minutes before baking pizza, put
    a pizza stone or 4 to 6 unglazed "quarry" tiles arranged close
    together on oven rack in lowest position in oven and preheat oven to
    highest setting (500 deg. -550 deg. F).

    Trim any tough stems from arugula and thinly slice cheese. On a
    lightly floured surface pat out dough evenly with your fingers,
    keeping hands flat and lifting and turning dough over several times,
    into a 9-inch round. (Do not handle dough more than necessary. If
    dough is sticky, dust it lightly with flour.)

    Dust a baker's peel or rimless baking sheet with flour and carefully
    transfer dough to it. Jerk peel or baking sheet once or twice and,
    if dough is sticking, lift dough and sprinkle flour underneath it,
    reshaping dough if necessary. Working quickly, top dough with sauce,
    spreading with back of a spoon to within 1/2 inch of edge. Arrange
    mozzarella slices evenly over sauce.

    Line up far edge of peel or baking sheet with far edge of stone or
    tiles and tilt peel or baking sheet, jerking it gently to start
    pizza moving. Once edge of pizza touches stone or tiles, carefully
    pull back peel or baking sheet, completely transferring pizza to
    stone or tiles (do not move pizza). Bake pizza 6 to 7 minutes, or
    until dough is crisp and browned, and transfer with a metal spatula
    to a cutting board. Scatter arugula over pizza and arrange
    prosciutto slices on top.

    Cut pizza into wedges and serve immediately.
