Freezy's White Pizza - stolen from Mario's Pizza and Deli on Chicago Ave. in Minneapolis
Frechetta crusts (Mario took his crust to the grave)
1cm (3/8") or thicker Tomato slices
Fresh Basil
Minced Garlic
Heavy Olive Oil
Mozzarella
Dry grated Parmesan
Oregano
Ground Fennel
Pepper Mill
Preheat oven to 190C (375F) (or 200C/400F if you are making thinner pizza)
Cover top of crust with Olive Lightly, don't soak
Spread desired amount of minced Garlic on crust
Sprinkle with Parmesan
1 layer fresh Tomato Slices with some gaps between.
Shake on some Ground fennel (as you prefer)
Lay flat the Basil leaves. (as much as you want)
Cover with Mozzarella, (as much as you want )
Grind on some Black Pepper and sprinkle on more Parmesan
Place on pizza stone or non insulated pizza pan. Put in the oven till the cheese is melted, bubbling and starting to brown. Bottom should just start to brown also
You don't normally put meat on a white pizza but you can put pepperoni on if you wish
Instead of Pizza crust you can use layered flour tortilla shells fused together with an ounce of shredded cheese between the shells. These crisp nice on a pizza stone. You still would brush the top with olive oil
If you ask, "Hey, what about the sauce?" I'm gonna pop you right in the nads.
