Method

Step 1. Preheat Everdure Kiln to high.
Step 2. Add the Perfect Italiano Ricotta, Perfect Italiano Perfect Pizza, ¼ cup of finely chopped mushroom stems, truffle oil, lemon zest and half of the garlic and thyme into a bowl and mix to combine well.
Step 3. Add the sliced Swiss Brown Mushrooms to another bowl with the remaining thyme and garlic, drizzle over the olive oil and season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Toss to coat the mushrooms in the oil.
Step 4. Stretch out your pizza dough until it’s a thin, 12-inch pizza base and place onto the Everdure Pizza Peel. Spoon over the Ricotta Mixture, taking almost to the edges of the dough. Then  sprinkle over the seasoned mushrooms.
Step 5. Place pizza into the Kiln and cook for 90 seconds, until the pizza crust is charred and puffed up and the mushrooms are nicely browned.
Step 6. Remove from the Kiln, slice and eat warm!
