Regardless of whether you decide to prepare the leavened dough at home or buy it ready, it is important to make sure you follow the instructions and quantities indicated in the recipe, to obtain a perfect base for your Pizza with porcini mushrooms and mozzarella. The leavened dough is a key element for the success of the pizza, helping to give the finished product crunchiness, lightness and flavor. So whether you choose to prepare it at home or buy it ready, make sure you devote attention and care to this fundamental phase of pizza preparation.

For the topping of the delicious pizza, we recommend starting by cooking the succulent porcini mushrooms in a pan with extra virgin olive oil, garlic, pepper and parsley, for an irresistible aroma. If you don’t have fresh porcini mushrooms available, you can also use frozen ones that are easily available on the market.

Meanwhile, chop a soft mozzarella into small pieces to make it ready to melt on the pizza. Roll out the leavened dough on a sheet of floured baking paper in a baking tray, distribute the delicious porcini mushrooms on the leavened dough, adding a sprinkling of oregano and a pinch of salt to enhance the flavours.

Put the pizza in the preheated oven at 220 degrees and cook for 16 minutes, the perfect time for the pizza to reach the right browning. After these minutes of waiting, add the chopped mozzarella on the pizza and continue to cook for another 5 minutes, until the mozzarella has melted and wraps the pizza in a delicious stringy veil.

Once ready, enjoy the hot pizza, enjoying the unmistakable aroma and authentic flavor of the porcini mushrooms and melted mozzarella. To accompany this delicacy, we recommend a cheerful and sparkling white wine, such as a good Vermentino from Sardinia or a Prosecco Veneto, to complete the meal in an unforgettable way.

Enjoy your meal!
