PIZZA TUESDAYS

Jalapeño hummus, avocado smash with lemon juice & cilantro, feta, fresh radish slices, radish sprouts, chili flakes, everything bagel spice & fried eggs I don't care how basic it is, avocado toast is delicious. It's healthy, it's versatile, and we have been making it a LOT lately. Breakfast, lunch, whatever. Some people go for the avocado slices, but I prefer the smash. It lets you get away with different levels of avocado ripeness, and you can add some additional flavors int

Fresh burrata cheese, garlic confit, blackened leeks, sautéed asparagus, mustard breadcrumbs, chili flakes, lemon-mustard sauce This pizza was inspired by a recipe we found in Bon Appetit magazine for blackened leeks & asparagus. I love the charred flavor of the blistered, softened leeks, and along with the light crunch of the asparagus and the tang of the mustard and lemon, it's all perfectly balanced by the creamy burrata. And, because why not, we topped it off with some sp

Sliced avocado, strawberry-rhubarb salsa with onion & jalapeño, garlic tostones (fried plantains), crumbled cotija cheese, squeeze of fresh lime juice This is the perfect pizza for a warm April day, when spring produce is in season but your heart says it's time for summer. And to go along with the theme of being impatient, see: this plantain recipe. While most sweet fried plantain recipes require you to wait until the plantains are super ripe and nearly black, these Puerto Ri

Matcha & Parmesan pesto, goat cheese, roasted kohlrabi with kelp chili salt, fresh radishes, hazelnuts I love the combination of roasting the kohlrabi and keeping the radishes fresh on this pizza. Roasting brings out the mild, sweeter flavors of the kohlrabi, which is a great contrast with the sharp bite and crunch of the fresh radish slices. As for the pesto—matcha is super good for you, but flavor-wise, it's not for everyone. This pesto uses just a hint of it (though feel f

Skyr & Brennevín sauce, wildberry jam, caramelized fennel & crimini mushrooms, black lava salt, licorice While we already made one pizza in anticipation of our trip to Iceland, this one was inspired by a lot of the ingredients and flavors we found while we were there. We found that while a lot of traditional Icelandic foods use harsh, acquired-taste Viking flavors like brennevín, licorice and fermented shark, Icelanders themselves tend to offset this by favoring sweet, rich f

Marinated sardines (with grapeseed oil, sherry vinegar, thyme, parsley & Aleppo pepper) with avocado, toasted almonds, scallions, red onion, mint & lemon juice This recipe was adapted from Gabrielle Hamilton's Prune cookbook. I've never been to the restaurant in New York, but I was completely won over after reading her memoir Blood, Bones & Butter, so I thought I'd give one of her recipes a try on a pizza. It's definitely an adventurous one, but if you are down with the recen

Brie wedges, Cranberry-pear sauce (with cinnamon sticks & apple cider), almonds, dark chocolate sprinkled with sea salt Recipe Ingredients: 1 ball of pizza dough olive oil flour for dusting semolina flour for the pizza stone salt & pepper 1 hunk of brie, sliced (I prefer to keep the rinds on, but you can remove them if you don’t like them) ½ cup almonds, chopped 1-2 bars dark chocolate, broken into pieces coarse sea salt (or go the extra mile and use Maldon salt flakes
