Instructions
Prevent your screen from going dark as you follow along.
Step 1
Preheat your pizza oven to 340°C / 650°F (stone floor temperature).
Step 2
In a small bowl, mix together the ricotta, extra virgin olive oil, and lemon juice with a good pinch each of salt and pepper.
Step 3
Press and open the dough into a 12-inch circle. Use a pastry brush to lightly wet the outside edge of the dough, then gently press the sesame seeds onto it and transfer the base to a lightly floured peel. Top with the mozzarella, even dollops of ricotta mixture, and the caramelized onions.
Step 4
Launch the pizza into the oven and bake on a low flame, rotating the pizza 90 degrees every minute, for 4 minutes. Cook for a final minute with the flame on high to obtain a bit more color, making sure to rotate the pizza frequently.
Step 5
Once baked, place on a cooling screen or wire rack and rest for about 1 minute, then cut into 6-8 slices.
Step 6
Finish with chopped parlsey and shaved Pecorino Romano.
