Tony's Trending Recipe: Stuffed Squash Blossom Pizza
Author: 
Recipe type: pizza
 
Ingredients
  • 6 prepared squash blossoms filled with ricotta (see preparation)
  • 1 dough ball that makes a 12-inch pizza
  • 5 ounces whole milk mozzarella
  • 4 ounces ricotta in a pastry bag
  • 2 ounces burrata
  • 2 ounces Prosciutto Di Parma (sliced thin)
  • Crushed red pepper
  • Shaved Parmigiano Reggiano
  • Salt and pepper
  • Olive oil
Instructions
  1. Squash blossom preparation: Gently open the blossom and check it by turning it upside down to give it a gentle shake.
  2. Next, remove any pistil or stamen by using your fingers to snap them off. There could be insects in the blossom, so double-check the inside.
  3. Gently rinse the blossoms if needed and lightly pat dry.
  4. Trim stem off.
  5. Using a pastry bag, fill the inside of each blossom half way with ricotta.
  6. Season with salt and pepper, then set aside.
  7. Shape and stretch your pizza into a 12-inch circle.
  8. Add the mozzarella (leaving a ¼ inch border).
  9. Place the stuffed squash blossoms onto the pizza in a star-like pattern.
  10. Drizzle olive oil over the blossoms, and the pizza, then place into oven.
  11. When finished, remove the pizza from the oven and cut into 6 slices (cut between the squash blossoms).
  12. Add pieces of burrata, crushed red pepper, shaved Parmigiana and slices of prosciutto.
  13. Salt, pepper and lightly oil your burrata.
  14. Serve.
