Upstate NY Style Shrimp Margherita Pizza
Margherita Pizza my mom's all-time favorite Pizza and this was my mom's dough recipe, with our favorite topping! Her name was Margaret, coincidence?
Easy to make, nothing like homemade dough, especially if you use a heavy duty mixer... I cheat! Mom use to do everything by hand, it amazed me how light and perfect her dough was... nothing ever comes out quite like she made it.. She would have loved these toppings, shrimp was her favorite too... But you can put whatever you like on it... the original way is just fresh tomatoes and fresh basil...
Pizza Dough
l recipe of pizza dough
12 shrimps cleaned, deveined with tails off or more if you like
2 cups mozzarella cheese shredded
2 cloves minced garlic
2 tablespoons melted butter
olive oil
2 beefsteak tomatoes thinly sliced
fresh basil leaves
oregano, salt, pepper
grating cheese
Mix all ingredients in a large mixer with dough hook, mix until dough forms a ball, knead until smooth and elastic, add more flour if the dough is sticky, this should not be dry but a firm ball. Rise in a bowl covered with a wet towel, until doubled in size in a warm spot, away from draft... Stretch dough out on a lightly greased pan, brush top of dough with olive oil. Brush with butter, add garlic, oregano. Top with mozzarella, sliced tomatoes, shrimps on top then basil. Salt and pepper to taste. Sprinkle top with grating cheese and more dried oregano.
Bake on 430-degree oven till browned on top. Around 25 minutes or more depending on how crispy you like it.
