All Hail Deborah Madison – Part Deux

Another Mushroom Pizza

The title is not derogatory, folks – it was titled by this weekend’s ‘Deity of Dough’ (pizza & tart) and ‘Vixen of Vegetables.’  Now that I’m all out of monikers, on to the real treat:  the pizza!

I gave myself a little break (I hear you crying out, “Cheater! Cheater!” already) by obtaining some refrigerated herb dough from Trader Joe’s, and focused on the filling.  Procuring one pound of tasty mushrooms, such as shiitake and oyster, sauté them in olive oil with garlic, grape tomatoes and onions, as well as some thyme and red wine vinegar.  Fontina and parmesan cheesified the top of Madison’s (p.514) AMAZING pie.  I don’t know how I’ll ever top this for Sam; I think he is hoping to see this treat on many a future dinner plate!  Thank heavens for leftovers…
