Step-by-step recipe

check things off as you go
  1. Preheat the oven

    Turn the oven to 240 °C, convection if you have it, and put the baking sheet inside so it heats up.

  2. Slice the mushrooms

    Wipe the mushrooms with a damp towel, trim off the dirty stem ends, then slice them thin.

  3. Brown the mushrooms

    Heat half a tablespoon of olive oil in the skillet over high heat, add the mushrooms with half the salt and pepper. Cook them until the liquid has cooked off and they're golden.

    Tip · Don't stir the mushrooms too often and don't salt them too early in a lukewarm skillet. They need to lose their liquid before browning, otherwise they make the crust soggy.
  4. Prep the toppings

    Tear the mozzarella into pieces, crumble the gorgonzola and cut the ham into strips.

  5. Roll out the dough

    Carefully take the sheet out of the oven and lay a sheet of parchment paper on it. Brush the paper with the rest of the olive oil, then roll the dough out on it with the rolling pin.

    Tip · Roll the dough right on the parchment paper, then slide it onto the hot sheet, paper and all, if it's too tricky to handle. It won't stick.
  6. Top the pizza

    Spread the tomato sauce over the dough, leaving a 1 cm border. Scatter the mozzarella, Swiss cheese, gorgonzola, ham and mushrooms, then sprinkle with parmesan and the rest of the salt and pepper.

  7. Bake the pizza

    Slide the sheet in at 240 °C. Bake until the edges are golden and the cheese is fully melted and bubbling.

  8. Rest and serve

    Take the pizza out and let it rest 2 minutes on the sheet. Slice it and serve it hot.
