• active dry yeast
• bread flour
• salt
• water
• olive oil
• biga
• extra-virgin olive oil

Instructions

1. 1 Place 1/2 cup warm water in a small bowl, and sprinkle yeast over the surface. Let stand until yeast is absorbed, about 10 minutes.
2. 2 Combine flour and salt in a large bowl. Make a well in the center, and pour in the cold water, yeast mixture, 1 tablespoon olive oil, and biga. Stir together using a sturdy wooden spoon.
3. 3 When the dough comes together, turn out onto a floured surface, and knead vigorously for about 20 minutes. Take a few 1 to 2 minute breaks if you like. The dough will be somewhat sticky until it is fully kneaded. Form dough into a ball. Rub the inside of a clean bowl with oil, and place the dough in it. Turn to coat the ball with oil. Cover with a towel and let rise at room temperature until doubled in size. This will take about 1 1/2 hours.
4. 4 Punch down the dough by folding the edges into the center and turning it over so the top is once again smooth. Cover the bowl again, and let the dough rise a second time until doubled, about 45 minutes.
5. 5 Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and gently flatten into an 8 inch square using the palms of your hands. Cover and let rise again.
6. 6 Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Place a baking stone in the oven while it preheats. Dust a bakers peel with cornmeal, and gently slide it under the dough square. Use your fingers to make a dimpled surface by pressing them about 3/4 of the way down into the dough. Mist with water.
7. 7 Sprinkle a little cornmeal over the surface of the baking stone. Slide the square off of the peel onto the baking stone. Mist some water into the hot oven, and quickly shut the door.
8. 8 Bake for 30 minutes in the preheated oven, until the top is golden brown. Remove from the oven to cool on a wire rack. Brush the surface with remaining olive oil while the foccacia is still hot.

Ingredients

• ✓ cornmeal
• water
• active dry yeast
• semolina flour
• olive oil
• salt
• pizza sauce
• basil
• provolone cheese

Instructions

1. 1 Pour ⅓ cup warm water into a bowl; sprinkle yeast over top. Let stand to make sure yeast is active, 10 to 15 minutes.
2. 2 Add 1 ½ cups semolina flour, olive oil, and salt to yeast mixture; mix with your hands to form a relatively stiff dough ball, adding more water if needed to bring dough together.
3. 3 Transfer dough to a work surface; knead until smooth, about 5 minutes. Cover with the bowl; let rest for 30 minutes.
4. 4 Uncover dough; knead 3 to 4 minutes. Divide dough into 2 portions; shape each into smooth balls, using damp hands to help smooth out dough, if needed.
5. 5 Generously dust half a kitchen towel with semolina flour; place dough balls on top. Sprinkle dough ball tops with semolina flour; cover with other half of towel. Let dough rise until almost doubled in volume, about 2 hours.
6. 6 Preheat the oven to 500 degrees F (260 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and sprinkle with cornmeal.
7. 7 Roll out each dough ball on a lightly floured surface into a very thin circle or oval shape.
8. 8 Combine pizza sauce and basil in a bowl; spread a thin layer of sauce over dough, leaving a 1 inch border. Scatter provolone every few inches over sauce. Fold opposite dough edges toward the middle to form a rectangle; press lightly to flatten slightly. Repeat spreading sauce and scattering provolone over dough.
9. 9 Fold each end toward the center to make a square shape. Spread with a thin layer of sauce and scatter pieces of cheese on one half. Fold in half, overlapping the edge by about 1 inch. Transfer to the prepared baking sheet. Repeat filling and folding (Steps 8 and 9) with remaining dough, sauce, and cheese.
10. 10 Bake in the preheated oven until very well browned, 16 to 18 minutes. Some spots may get charred, but this is fine and desirable, since scacce are traditionally cooked in very hot wood-fired ovens. Let rest before slicing and serving, 15 minutes.

Ingredients

• ✓ cornmeal
• all-purpose flour
• water
• water
• olive oil
• salt
• olive oil
• crescenza-stracchino cheese
• olive oil
• sea salt

Instructions

1. 1 Place flour into work bowl of a large stand mixer; add both amounts of water, 1 tablespoon olive oil, and 3/4 teaspoon salt. Mix dough using stand mixer fitted with dough hook on low speed until it forms a ball on the dough hook, 5 to 6 minutes. Dough should be soft and elastic but not sticky.
2. 2 Turn dough out onto a work surface and form a ball. Cover with plastic wrap and let stand on counter at room temperature for 1 hour.
3. 3 Lightly grease the quarter-sheet baking pan with 1 teaspoon olive oil; sprinkle with cornmeal. Dust a work surface lightly with flour.
4. 4 Move oven rack to center position. Preheat oven to 500 degrees F (260 degrees C).
5. 5 Unwrap dough and cut into quarters. Pat each quarter out on the floured work surface to a roughly rectangular shape. Roll 1 piece of dough out to about 3/8 inch thick, retaining rough rectangle shape, until dough is about 6x8 inches. Pick up dough with well-floured hands and gently stretch it, rotating as you go, until dough is almost large enough to fit over the prepared sheet pan. Pull and stretch dough so it overlaps the edge of the pan by about 1/2 inch and fasten dough edges to sheet pan edges; dough will be thin and membrane-like.
6. 6 Drop about 6 tablespoons of crescenza-stracchino cheese onto the stretched dough, spreading the dollops out evenly. Roll out another piece of dough as before, stretching to fit over the first dough sheet and cheese. Stretch, pull, and seal dough as before so the cheese is enclosed between the 2 sheets of dough.
7. 7 Roll a rolling pin over the edges of the dough to simultaneously seal the flatbread edges and cut the overlapping edges off. Roll the overlapping dough edges away from the pan so flatbread falls into the prepared pan. Press flatbread edges flat and roll slightly if desired to be sure the edges are fully sealed. Discard rolled-off dough edges.
8. 8 Pinch a small bit of the top dough between your thumb and forefinger and gently tear a small hole in the dough; repeat 2 or 3 more times to make a few tears in the top layer.
9. 9 Drizzle flatbread lightly with 2 teaspoons olive oil; sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon coarse sea salt.
10. 10 Bake in the preheated oven until flatbread has many browned, blistered spots on top, bread has inflated, and the top is crusty, 6 to 7 minutes. Repeat steps to make a second flatbread using second half of dough as before. Drizzle 2nd flatbread with remaining 2 teaspoons olive oil and 1/4 teaspoon coarse sea salt. Bake second bread as before. Cut in breads into quarters and serve warm.

5. 5 Scatter 1 cup mozzarella over crust; arrange 1/2 ham slices in an even layer. Spread ricotta cheese mixture on top, then sprinkle with spinach. Cover with remaining 1/2 ham slices. Press down gently to pack layers. Add red peppers in a single layer and top with remaining 1 cup mozzarella. Press down again.
6. 6 Roll out remaining 1/3 dough on a lightly floured surface into a 9-inch circle. Place over filling to cover. Moisten edges with water; seal crusts together. Crimp or flute edges. Crust should not extend above pan rim. Beat remaining 1 egg; brush over crust. Cut several small vents in top crust for steam to escape.
7. 7 Bake in the preheated oven until crust is deep golden brown and pulls away from sides, about 1 hour.
8. 8 Cool in pan on wire rack for 45 minutes. Remove pan sides; cool completely. Cut into 12 wedges. Serve at room temperature.

Ingredients

• ✓ cornmeal
• pepperoni
• garlic powder
• red pepper
• garlic salt
• fennel seed
• oregano
• basil
• egg
• heavy cream
• black olive
• sweet red pepper
• portobello mushroom
• pork
• sausage
• sun-dried tomato
• parmesan cheese
• cheddar cheese
• mozzarella cheese
• pizza dough
• cooking spray

Instructions

1. 1 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray the bottom and sides of a 2 1/2-inch deep, 9 1/2-inch round springform pan with nonstick spray, then evenly dust with cornmeal.
2. 2 Roll out and stretch pizza dough to a diameter of about 15 1/2 inches. Carefully place it in the prepared pan to cover the bottom and sides with some overhang, re-stretching as needed.
3. 3 Toss mozzarella, Cheddar, and Parmesan cheeses together to mix. Set aside 1 cup in the refrigerator for later. Sprinkle 1/2 of the remaining cheese over the dough. Layer with sun-dried tomatoes, sausage, mushrooms, sweet pepper, and olives, in that order.
4. 4 Prepare custard: Whisk eggs in a 4-cup liquid measure. Add cream, eggs, basil, oregano, fennel seeds, garlic salt, crushed red pepper, and garlic powder and whisk until well combined.
5. 5 Pour 1/2 of the custard mixture over the layered ingredients. Top with remaining (non-refrigerated) cheese, then pour the remaining custard evenly over top. Roll the dough overhang inward over the cheese and custard.
6. 6 Place the springform pan on a large sheet of foil, and gather the foil up and around the pan in case it leaks. Transfer to the preheated oven and bake for 1 hour 15 minutes. Tent the top with foil to prevent excessive browning, and bake until fully set, about 45 minutes longer.
7. 7 Carefully remove from the oven. Sprinkle with reserved 1 cup cheese and pepperoni slices. Pop back into the oven and bake until cheese melts, about 10 minutes.
8. 8 Remove from the oven and place on a cooling rack. Tent loosely with foil and let rest for about 2 hours. (It will stay hot and be completely set after 2 hours.)
9. 9 Release the ring. Slice through the outer crust with a serrated knife, then a sharp chef's knife to finish slicing the pieces.

Ingredients

• ✓ cornmeal
• wheat berry
• water

Instructions

1. 1 Several days before you hope to eat this bread: rinse wheat berries in cool water. Drain and submerge wheat berries with cool water in a large bowl. Cover the bowl with a plate or cloth, and allow wheat berries to soak at normal room temperature overnight or for about 12 hours so they soak up a considerable amount of water.
2. 2 Drain wheat berries in a colander; cover the colander with a plate to prevent wheat berries from drying out and set it in a place away from any sunlight or light. Rinse berries about 3 times a day, and they will soon begin to sprout. In a couple of days the sprouts will reach their optimum length of about l/4 inch. Growth depends on moisture and temperature so be patient.
3. 3 Grind sprouted wheat berries in a food mill or in a food processor.
4. 4 After grinding, dump the mushed up grain onto a clean work surface. Squeeze and knead the grain for about 10 minutes, then form into 2 small round, hearth-style loaves with your hands. Sprinkle an insulated cookie sheet with a little bran or cornmeal, and put the loaves on it.
5. 5 Preheating the oven is not necessary. Cover the loaves with cloches, and bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 30 minutes. Then turn the oven down to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C), and bake for approximately 2 hours and 15 minutes more. Allow the breads to cool thoroughly on cooling racks for several hours, and then, because of the high moisture content, store in the refrigerator. For best results, slice this bread thinly, or break with hands.
