So, as some of you know I
recently moved to southern
California to open Truly
Pizza. Our pizzeria is located in
the lantern district in Dana Point,
and most of our neighborhood
streets are named after different
colored lanterns. There is Ruby,
Amber, Violet, Blue and lastly
(my favorite) Golden. We wanted
to craft a pizza that would honor
this major street, so that led me
to this month's recipe. To be honest,
it is still a work in progress.
As you can see, we shot this pizza
on a construction table, there
is actually a circular saw at the
end of the table! This version will
most defi nitely change as we get
closer to adding it to our menu.
This pizza is full of beautiful California
vegetables, cheeses and
pistachios. I wanted to chronicle
the evolution of this soon to be
beach classic, so here is the fi rst
draft. As per usual this recipe will
make three 10-inch pizzas. I hope
you enjoy!
9-12 zucchini blossoms (I
was lucky to fi nd them still
attached)
3 thinly sliced baby zucchini
Semi dried tomatoes
Pesto
Roasted pistachios
Basil
9 ounces shredded caciocavallo
6
ounces mozzarella
Burrata
Olive oil

Using your favorite pesto recipe,
fold in some toasted pistachio
and set aside. I do this almost to
order so that the pistachios do not
get soggy. Start by stretching your
pizza dough to desired thickness.
Next add the shredded caciocavallo
and mozzarella. Gently open
and layer your zucchini blossom
around your pizza, slide pizza into
a 550 F oven and bake for eight
to 10 minutes, rotating as needed.
When pizza is fi nished baking,
lay on a cooling rack for a minute
or two, cut and top with the pistachio
pesto blend, evenly spoon
burrata around, scatter the semi
dried tomato, add a squeeze of
olive oil, and lastly tear some blossoms
and scatter over the pizza
along with some fresh basil.
