Equipment

  • Outdoor Pizza Oven, Pizza Steel, or Stone (if using a home oven)
  • 1 Pizza Peel
  • 1 wooden chopping board or peel for prep and serving

Ingredients
  

  • 1 pizza dough ball
  • low-moisture mozzarella cheese
  • Beetroot relish – we prefer homemade, but of course, use a storebought version if you prefer. Just make sure its not too chunky and is easy to spread over the base
  • Oscypek (Polish smoked cheese)
  • Fresh chives

Instructions
 

  • Prepare Dough: Follow any of our dough recipes. You will need to prepare the dough at least 24 hours ahead of time.
  • Prepare Beetroot Relish: If making your own, this recipe is easy to follow and yielded great results for us.
  • Prepare Cheese: Tear the low moisture mozzarella into medium-sized pieces. Cut the oscypek into similar-sized pieces. Set aside for assembly.
  • Prepare Chives: Roughly chop the fresh chives. Set aside.
  • Preheat Oven:
    If using an outdoor pizza like an Ooni pizza oven, aim for a temperature of 450-500°C at the center of your pizza stone. Use an infrared thermometer to ensure accuracy. It should take around 25-30 minutes to reach temperature.
    For a home oven, using a pizza steel or stone, place the stone or steel inside the oven and preheat to the highest temperature for at least 30 minutes.
  • Prepare Base: On a lightly floured surface, stretch out the dough by hand according to the steps outlined in our dough recipe. Once you're happy with the shape of the base, lightly dust your pizza peel and transfer the dough onto the peel.
  • Assemble Pizza: To assemble the pizza, begin by spreading the beetroot relish over the dough. Next, evenly distribute pieces of mozzarella and oscypek cheeses across the dough. Each cheese piece should be around 2 cm in diameter and spaced at least 1.5 cm apart.
  • Bake Your Pizza:
    If you're using an outdoor pizza oven, launch the pizza into the oven and bake for 60-90 seconds. Keep an eye on the pie and rotate every 10-15 seconds to ensure even cooking and to avoid burning.
    For a home oven with a pizza steel or stone, the bake time should be around 7-10 minutes.
  • Serving: Once the pizza is ready, carefully remove it from the oven with a pizza peel. Place the pizza on a serving board and sprinkle the freshly chopped chives on top. Now, it's time to enjoy your homemade Beetroot Relish & Oscypek Pizza!
