Rolled pizza with vegetables
1 lb/0.5 kg flour, type “0”
1 egg
1 cube fresh brewer's yeast
5 oz/150 g whole milk
3 red bell peppers
1 clove garlic
1 tbsp capers (small)
2 tbsp black olives (preferably taggiasca)
1 egg, to brush
Extra virgin olive oil, to taste
Fine salt, to taste
3 oz/100 g Parmigiano Reggiano, shaved in slivers
Unsalted butter, to taste
Flour, to thicken
-
In a small bowl, dissolve the yeast in the warm milk. In the meantime, in a bowl, mix together egg, olive oil and flour. Once the yeast is completely dissolved, add it to the flour mix. Knead the mix in order to obtain a smooth dough. Score the top of the dough with an “X” and let it rise for at least 2 hours (until doubled in volume).
-
Soak the capers in water; replace the water 2-3 times so that the capers become less salty. Wash the bell peppers and bake them in the oven for 10 minutes at 350°F so that they can be easily peeled. Meanwhile pit the olives. Peel the peppers, cut them into strips and sauté them with a dash of olive oil and a clove of garlic. Add the olives and the well dried capers.
-
Prepare the Parmigiano Reggiano slivers. Put the dough on a pastry board and roll out into a very thin sheet. Top the dough with peppers, capers, olives and cheese slivers. Roll the dough and seal the edges of the shape well.
-
Brush with a beaten egg and place the roll on a buttered and floured baking tin. Let it rise for 30 minutes.
-
Bake in the oven at 340°F for 50 minutes.
Tips: You can roll out the dough using a sheeter, then use a rolling pin to join the dough strips together.
