Ingredients

QuantityIngredient
Pizza Dough
10ouncesFontina Cheese; thinly sliced
¾cupDry white wine
½cupFreshly grated Parmesan cheese
3Egg yolks; lightly beaten
Salt and freshly ground pepper
Fresh; minced garlic

Directions

This is from the Williams Sonoma Pizza Cookbook. I was wrong-- it doesn't have any oil in it. Enjoy!

Make the dough. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. If using pizza stone or baking tiles, put them in the oven now.

Combine Fontina and wine in a heat-proof bowl. Place bowl in a saucepan half filled with water to form a bain marie. Once cheese is melted, add Parmesan and egg yolks, then stir until mixture is creamy and thickens, about 5 minutes. Do not allow mixture to boil.

Remove from heat and season to taste with salt, pepper, and garlic.

Shape pizza dough into one large round or smaller hor d'ovre size rounds.

Spoon Fontina mixture evenly over dough.

Bake for 10 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 400 degrees F and bake until crust is golden, about 10 minutes.

Serves 4, or more as hor d'ovres.
