Mixed Mushroom Pizza

• Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup Sun-Dried Milky White Mushrooms (rehydrated)

  • 1/2 cup Sun-Dried Oyster Mushrooms (rehydrated)

  • 1/2 cup Sun-Dried Shiitake Mushrooms (rehydrated)

  • 1 pre-made pizza base

  • 1/2 cup tomato sauce

  • 1 cup mozzarella cheese

  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning

• Instructions:

  1. Begin by preheating your oven to 200°C (400°F). This step is crucial for achieving a perfectly baked pizza with a crispy crust.

  2. Spread a generous layer of tomato sauce evenly across the surface of the pizza base. Use the back of a spoon or a spatula to ensure that the sauce reaches the edges, creating a flavorful barrier that keeps the toppings in place.

  3. Carefully distribute the rehydrated mushrooms over the sauce, ensuring that each slice of pizza will have a balanced amount of each variety. Follow this by sprinkling the mozzarella cheese generously over the mushrooms, allowing for an even melt and coverage.

  4. Finally, sprinkle the Italian seasoning evenly across the top of the cheese, adding a fragrant touch that will infuse the entire pizza as it bakes.

  5. Place the assembled pizza in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 12-15 minutes. Keep an eye on it; the cheese should melt beautifully and begin to bubble, while the crust should turn a golden brown.

  6. Once baked to perfection, carefully remove the pizza from the oven using oven mitts. Allow it to cool for a minute or two before slicing it into wedges. This cooling period helps the cheese set slightly, making it easier to cut.

  7. Slice the pizza into equal portions and serve hot. Enjoy the delightful combination of flavors and textures from the medley of sun-dried mushrooms and gooey mozzarella, perfect for a cozy meal or a gathering with friends.
