Ingredients

Scale

Pizza Base

  • 345 g Pillsbury Thin and Crispy Pizza Crust Dough (12 oz)

Toppings

  • 200 g Crème fraîche (7 oz) (or ricotta)
  • 200 g Parmesan cheese, grated (7 oz)
  • 1 Red onion, finely chopped
  • 4 tbsp Fresh dill, finely chopped
  • 200 g Crème fraîche (7 oz) (or sour cream)
  • 57 g Black or red lump-fish caviar (roe) (2 oz)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 250° C (482° F) to ensure it reaches a high temperature which will help the crust become thin and crispy.
  2. Prepare Baking Sheets: Line two sheet pans with parchment paper to prevent sticking and make cleanup easier.
  3. Roll Out Dough: Roll out each piece of the pizza crust dough into thin rounds on the prepared baking sheets.
  4. Apply Crème Fraîche: Spread the 200 g crème fraîche or ricotta evenly over each rolled out dough, creating a smooth base layer.
  5. Add Cheese: Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese generously over the crème fraîche layer for a deliciously cheesy topping.
  6. Bake the Pizzas: Place the baking sheets in the oven and bake the pizzas for 7 to 10 minutes, or until the cheese has melted and the crust turns a light golden color.
  7. Cut into Portions: Remove the pizzas from the oven and cut them into 30 small squares for easy serving.
  8. Add Fresh Toppings: Sprinkle the finely chopped red onion and fresh dill evenly across all pizza squares for a burst of flavor and color.
  9. Top with Dollops: Place a small dollop of crème fraîche on each pizza square and finish by adding a small dab of lump-fish caviar on top, providing a luxurious and tangy finish.

Notes

  • You can substitute crème fraîche with ricotta or sour cream as indicated, depending on availability and preference.
  • Serving in small bite-size squares makes this ideal for appetizers or party finger food.
  • For best results, ensure the oven is fully preheated to get the desired crispness on the pizza crust.
  • Use fresh dill and finely chopped red onion to maximize the aroma and freshness of the pizza.
  • The black or red lump-fish caviar adds a sophisticated touch but can be omitted or replaced with other roe if desired.
