Potato And Asparagus Pizza With Sauce Gribiche Recipes

FARMERS MARKET POTATO & ASPARAGUS PIZZA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450°F.
• Use a vegetable peeler to peel the asparagus vertically into ribbons. Set the ribbons aside and finely chop any leftover bits of the tender parts of the asparagus, avoiding the fibrous inch or so on the ends.
• Use a mandoline or a sharp knife to slice the potatoes paper thin.
• Stretch the pizza dough to fit a large pizza stone or pan. Brush the dough with olive oil and sprinkle with the minced garlic. Top the dough with three-fourths of the gruyere cheese, and then layer the potatoes in circles, starting from the outside of the pizza working in. Let them overlap just slightly. Sprinkle on the remaining gruyere cheese and half of the chives and bake for 12 to 14 minutes or until the dough is cooked through and the potatoes are tender.
• Remove the pizza from the oven and top with the radish slices, if using, and the asparagus ribbons. Squeeze lemon over the asparagus and sprinkle with a few pinches of salt and pepper. Break apart the chive blossoms and sprinkle on top along with the thyme flowers and/or leaves. Return the pizza for the oven for 3 minutes to lightly warm the toppings.
• Remove from the oven and top with the Parmesan cheese and freshly cracked black pepper.

• Trim 1/2 pound asparagus. Cut each stalk in half lengthwise, then crosswise into 2-inch pieces. Form 1 pound refrigerated pizza dough (at room temperature) into an 11-by-15-inch rectangle on an oiled piece of parchment. Top with the asparagus and 1 cup shredded fontina. Slide the crust (on the parchment) onto a preheated pizza stone or inverted baking sheet. Bake at 475˚ until the bottom is crisp, 12 minutes. Top with pesto and red pepper flakes.

SHAVED ASPARAGUS AND POTATO PIZZA

Steps:

• Prepare the asparagus: Trim about 1/2 inch from the bottom of the asparagus spears. With a vegetable peeler , shave the spears into long, thin strips: hold a spear by the bud end and scrape down the length with the peeler. Turn the stalk often until you can no longer scrape it. Cut the remaining core of the spear into 1-inch pieces. In a bowl, toss all of the asparagus with the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil, salt and pepper. Set aside.
