Cuisine: American
Serves: 6 pizza slices
Ingredients
  • 6 garlic cloves (unpeeled!)
  • splash olive oil
  • 8 oz mushrooms, sliced
  • 1 tsp white wine vinegar
  • 1 TBS each: butter and all purpose flour
  • ½ cup milk of choice (I used soy milk)
  • ¼ tsp each: salt, pepper, dried basil, onion powder
  • 3 TBS Parmesan
  • 1 whole wheat pizza dough recipe
  • 1 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded
  • ½ cup Parmigiano-Reggiano, grated
  • 2 TBS minced fresh herbs (I used parsley)
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 400 F.
  2. Toss unpeeled garlic with a splash of olive oil. Wrap in a piece of foil. Roast garlic in the preheated oven for 40 minutes.
  3. Meanwhile, prep your pizza dough.
  4. Add mushrooms to a large skillet and cook over medium heat until the liquid is released and evaporated. Stir in white wine vinegar and set aside.
  5. In another small skillet, whisk together butter and flour over medium heat. Let this mixture bubble for 1 minutes, stirring constantly. Whisk in milk, and stir until thickened.
  6. Mix salt, pepper, basil, onion powder, and Parmesan.
  7. Peel roasted garlic and add to the sauce. Transfer to a mini food processor or use a hand blender to blend the garlic cloves into the sauce. Set white sauce aside.
  8. Increase oven temperature to 425 F.
  9. Press dough out into a 12 inch circle. Spread white sauce evenly over dough. Top with mozzarella, parmigiano-reggiano, and sauted mushrooms.
  10. Bake in the preheated oven (preferably on a pizza stone) for 12 minutes, or until the cheese is starting to turn golden brown.
  11. Top with herbs, and cut into 6 slices.
