Serrano ham and olives

Outdoor dining is hot right now. When the weather is great we love eating outdoors, but if it’s sunny you don’t want to be stuck in the kitchen cooking - which makes our pizza bases ideal for a quick, no fuss meal that still feels really special

N’duja, Egg & Kalamata Olives

I can almost taste the salty, spicy-sweet bite of this n’duja pizza as I write. It’s a popular pizza topping right now and available in most good artisan food stores. Pronounced en-DOO-ya, it’s a buttery, spreadable pork from Italy and we collaborated with chef Dan Cruickshank on this epic pizza. Here’s what Dan had to say and his recipe -

One of my favourite pizzas to make at home. We love spicy food and we love salami so n’duja is perfect. It’s spreadable, similar to asobrassada. It’s soft like butter so it melts on to the pizza. If you can’t get it in the shops, substitute it with a nice Gubbeen chorizo. Chorizo is more firm like the salamis you are used to, but still amazing on a pizza. This coupled with the olives make it quite salty. So this pizza is perfectly paired with a nice lager.

Quick red onion pickle. Thinly slice your red onion. Squeeze of lemon juice and a tsp of sugar if you want to sweeten them up. That’s it. Leave them for around 30 minutes until they are electric in colour.

Ingredients:

Pizza da Piero pizza base

Tomato Sauce

Torn mozzarella, one and half ball per pizza

N’duja( or chorizo if you can’t find it in shops)

Kalamata olives. Make sure they are de stoned

1 free range egg

Pickled red onions for garnish

Method:

1- Tomato sauce on base.

2-Scatter your torn mozzarella around the base.

3-Next add your nduja. It’s very soft so you can use a spoon to place it on the pizza. It is very salty and spicy so depending on your taste, go sparingly

4-Crack your egg in the centre and bang it in a hot oven for 6 minutes or depending on how you like your egg cooked a couple more minutes.

5-Serve with picked red onions scattered on top

Flammenkuchen (White Pizza)

Here’s another incredible recipe from chef Dan Cruickshank - https://www.instagram.com/chefcruickshank/ from way back in March when we were so lucky to host the most amazing day of cooking and photography with Dan and Shilpa from https://www.instagram.com/soulful_and_healthy/

---

Dan - This is my own version of Flammenkuchen. Although not typically accurate, it is a nice change from your regular tomato based pizza. I generally serve these sliced a little thinner as it is a very rich pizza, the crème fraiche and the cheese work so well together. The cracked black pepper really brings out the nutty flavour of the comte cheese. I would serve this with cold glass of Reisling  

---

 Ingredients :

Pizza da Piero pizza base 

I tub of crème fraiche

Comte

1 onion finely sliced

Streaky rasher

Cracked black pepper

Method :

1 - Crisp up your rashers on a hot pan or in the grill and set aside

2 - Spoon your crème fraiche on your base. Liberally, add cracked black pepper on top.

3 - Grate your comte on top. If you can’t get comte use gruyere or any hard Alpine cheese.

4 - Add your crispy rashers on top. In a hot oven for 5 minutes.

5 - Add your thinly sliced white onion.

6 - Serve with fresh rocket and some more cracked black pepper.

Ribeye Steak & Garlic Butter

A few months ago we threw the best pizza party! We invited chef Dan Cruikshank over to our home to make us some incredible pizzas and the very talented photographer Shilpa from Soulful and Healthy took photos.

Dan came up with all the recipes and his first one was this Ribeye Steak with Garlic Butter. This is the perfect pizza for any meat lover looking for that something a bit more special.

---

Wild garlic and parsley butter. 

• Wash and roughly chop wild garlic. 

• Dice parsley and mix with room temp salted butter. 

• Make a sausage shape and roll in cling. Great for keeping in the fridge and taking it out as you need it. 

• If garlic season is finished, regular garlic will work. As would any type of herb.

---

Ingredients -

Pizza da Piero pizza base

Rib eye steak sealed off and par cooked

Wild Garlic butter (recipe above)

Pizza sauce

Mozzarella Cheese

Method -

Spoon your tomato sauce on the base.

Add your torn mozzarella.

Place your sliced steak across the pizza. I like mine rare so I just give it a quick flash in a pan to caramelise the outside leaving the inside nice and red. It will cook more on top of the pizza.

Slice your chilled butter and place a couple slices on the pizza

Bake in oven at the highest temp for 3-5 minutes

Pizza Bismarck (Breakfast Pizza)

Nothing says comfort like a pizza, even a simple Margherita. But the satisfaction can run much deeper when your pizza is made with fresh, handmade bases and quality toppings.

We recently had to create a pizza exclusively for Irish Country Magazine readers. A lot of recipe ideas came and went, but the idea of a cracked egg on top of our pizza bases stuck with us. We knew we wanted to create a really tasty pizza, so began thinking about flavours and textures. This is our take on a Pizza Bismarck. Perfect for a lazy Saturday/Sunday brunch with a nice glass of Prosecco!

Ingredients :

• 1 Pizza da Piero pizza base

• Pizza Sauce

• 8 Smoked Pancetta strips

• 100g Salsa Tartufata Truffle and Mushroom Sauce (we got this from Italicatessen)

• 1 egg

• 1 tin of Porcini Mushrooms (or any fresh sautéed mushrooms)

• Handful of fresh rocket

• 1 pack of fresh Buffalo Mozzarella

Method :

1 - Spread the pizza sauce on the base

2 - Lay out the Pancetta strips leaving rom in the middle for the egg

3 - Scatter a handful of Mushrooms over the Pancetta

4 - Using a spoon, dot the Salsa Tartufata over the pizza

5 - Crack the egg into the middle

6 - Bake in oven at highest temp for 3 - 5 minutes. The crust should be crispy but not burnt.

7 - Remove from the oven and garnish with the rocket and mozzarella.

Ham, Mushroom & Grilled Peppers

Happy weekend everyone! Summer has arrived so we’re firing up the BBQ and grilling lots of lovely vegetables.

Grilled Peppers have a rich and sweet taste, enough to give any pizza some va-va-voom. Add some Mixed Wild Mushrooms grilled with garlic for a lovely earthy flavour when combined with Ham will guarantee a delicious, comforting pizza that will have you making this pizza again and again.

Remember, as our pizzas only take between 3-5 minutes to cook in the oven, all vegetables should be pre cooked.

Ingredients -

• Pizza da Piero pizza bases

• Pizza Sauce

• Fresh Mozzarella

• Cooked Ham

• Wild Mushrooms (pre sauteéd in garlic)

• Grilled Peppers

• Fresh Rocket to serve

Method -

1- Pre heat oven to the highest temperature

2 - Spread pizza sauce on your pizza base

3 - Sprinkle with Mozzarella

4 - Top with Ham, Mushrooms & Grilled Peppers

5-Bake in the oven for 3-5 minutes. Until edges of crust are browned lightly and cheese melts.

6 - Garnish with fresh rocket

7-Slice and enjoy!
