Zucchine (Shaved Zucchini, Stracciatella, and Mint)
Makes enough for one 10- to 12-inch pizza
INGREDIENTS
1 small zucchini, finely grated (about 3/4 cup / ~150g)
1/2 cup (50 g) freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, plus some for sprinkling
1 tablespoon (15 ml) extra-virgin olive oil, plus some for finishing
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 ounces (57 g) stracciatella or burrata cheese
5 or 6 fresh mint leaves
DIRECTIONS
1. Prepare the Zucchini Mixture
Just before baking the pizza, grate the zucchini and
mix it with the Parmigiano and oil in a small bowl.
Season with salt and pepper until it tastes good to you.
2. Assemble
Quickly shape your pizza dough so that water doesn't
leak out of the zucchini and make the pizza soggy.
After shaping the dough, quickly spread the zucchini
mixture over the pizza in an even layer all the way to
the rim.
Sprinkle with a little more Parmigiano.
3. Bake
Cook the pizza until it is slightly darker than usual
to help drive some of the water out of the zucchini.
4. Finish
After slicing, finish it with dollops of the
stracciatella.
Scatter on the mint leaves and drizzle
on a little oil.
