To prepare this pizza, it is important to carefully follow each step, from spreading the leavened dough to arranging the ingredients. The care and attention that are put into each stage of preparation are essential to guarantee a perfect result of the pizza.
To get a perfect Pizza with prawns and fresh asparagus, you need to take care of the leavened dough. You can follow the instructions provided by this link or, if you prefer, buy ready-made pasta at a bakery or supermarket. Once the dough is obtained, roll it out on a sheet of floured baking paper and place it on a baking tray. Roll it out with the help of a rolling pin or with your hands, being careful not to tear the dough. Before starting to prepare the other ingredients, let the dough rest for a few minutes, to allow it to relax and regain some leavening. In this way, your pizza will be softer and lighter on the palate.
To prepare the shrimp and asparagus pizza, start by blanching the asparagus tips in boiling salted water for about 1 minute, then let them cool and cut them into long pieces. Clean the shrimp from the legs and antennae and set aside.
Evenly distribute the peeled tomatoes or the peeled fresh tomatoes, cut very finely, over the pizza base. Then add the minced mozzarella and the pieces of asparagus and prawns.
Season with the oregano, salt and pepper to taste, and bake in the preheated oven at 220 degrees for about 22 minutes, or until the pizza is golden and crunchy.
Once the pizza is cooked, remove the pan from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes to allow the flavors of the ingredients to absorb. Serve hot and enjoy it with a glass of fresh and fragrant white wine such as a fragrant and fruity Vermentino from Sardinia, or with a Chardonnay from the Veneto with an aromatic and lively bouquet.
Enjoy your meal!
