What could be better? Well, adding garlic, that's what. That was my inspiration for today's pizza. Dinner the night before had been a cannellini soup with balsamic vinegar and olive oil. So thick that it's essentially a stew. And I though - hmmmm - this would really be good on a pizza. And so it began.<br /><br />I already had the dough, made a couple of days before. And I had the beans. So, I needed to get some garlic ready.&nbsp;</div>  <div class="paragraph">I doubled over some aluminum wrap to make a steamer of sorts. Used my bread knife to cut off the tops of three heads of garlic and placed them on the sheet:</div>  <div><div class="wsite-image wsite-image-border-none " style="padding-top:10px;padding-bottom:10px;margin-left:0;margin-right:0;text-align:center"> <a> <img src="https://www.crowdensatz.com/uploads/3/0/2/0/30202879/10garlic1_orig.jpg" alt="Picture" style="width:auto;max-width:100%" /> </a> <div style="display:block;font-size:90%"></div> </div></div>  <div class="paragraph">Next up, fold the edges up and fold over what's going to be the lid:<br /></div>  <div><div class="wsite-image wsite-image-border-none " style="padding-top:10px;padding-bottom:10px;margin-left:0;margin-right:0;text-align:center"> <a> <img src="https://www.crowdensatz.com/uploads/3/0/2/0/30202879/11garlic2_orig.jpg" alt="Picture" style="width:auto;max-width:100%" /> </a> <div style="display:block;font-size:90%"></div> </div></div>  <div class="paragraph">Next, drizzle some extra virgin olive oil of the tops:</div>  <div><div class="wsite-image wsite-image-border-none " style="padding-top:10px;padding-bottom:10px;margin-left:0;margin-right:0;text-align:center"> <a> <img src="https://www.crowdensatz.com/uploads/3/0/2/0/30202879/13garlic3_orig.jpg" alt="Picture" style="width:auto;max-width:100%" /> </a> <div style="display:block;font-size:90%"></div> </div></div>  <div class="paragraph">Next, fold over the top and crimp the edges:</div>  <div><div class="wsite-image wsite-image-border-none " style="padding-top:10px;padding-bottom:10px;margin-left:0;margin-right:0;text-align:center"> <a> <img src="https://www.crowdensatz.com/uploads/3/0/2/0/30202879/14garlic4_orig.jpg" alt="Picture" style="width:auto;max-width:100%" /> </a> <div style="display:block;font-size:90%"></div> </div></div>  <div class="paragraph">Placed it in a 350 degree oven and baked for 40 minutes. Here's what it looks like as I removed the cloves:</div>  <div><div class="wsite-image wsite-image-border-none " style="padding-top:10px;padding-bottom:10px;margin-left:0;margin-right:0;text-align:center"> <a> <img src="https://www.crowdensatz.com/uploads/3/0/2/0/30202879/15garlic5_orig.jpg" alt="Picture" style="width:auto;max-width:100%" /> </a> <div style="display:block;font-size:90%"></div> </div></div>  <div class="paragraph">When all was done - this is what I had. I pulled out a bunch of cloves whole and then squeezed the entire head like a toothpaste tube to get all the rest out. An uncooked head of garlic is included for reference:</div>  <div><div class="wsite-image wsite-image-border-none " style="padding-top:10px;padding-bottom:10px;margin-left:0;margin-right:0;text-align:center"> <a> <img src="https://www.crowdensatz.com/uploads/3/0/2/0/30202879/17garlic7_orig.jpg" alt="Picture" style="width:auto;max-width:100%" /> </a> <div style="display:block;font-size:90%"></div> </div></div>  <div class="paragraph">Now a look at the ingredients.&nbsp; From left to right - fig balsamic vinegar, sliced mozzarella, pureed bean stew, dried oregano, minced anchovies, tomato sauce, dough, grated parmigiana, roasted garlic, extra virgin olive oil:</div>  <div><div class="wsite-image wsite-image-border-none " style="padding-top:10px;padding-bottom:10px;margin-left:0;margin-right:0;text-align:center"> <a> <img src="https://www.crowdensatz.com/uploads/3/0/2/0/30202879/18miseenplace_orig.jpg" alt="Picture" style="width:auto;max-width:100%" /> </a> <div style="display:block;font-size:90%"></div> </div></div>  <div class="paragraph">And now, time to assemble. First off, 360 g of freshly tossed dough:</div>  <div><div class="wsite-image wsite-image-border-none " style="padding-top:10px;padding-bottom:10px;margin-left:0;margin-right:0;text-align:center"> <a> <img src="https://www.crowdensatz.com/uploads/3/0/2/0/30202879/20top1_orig.jpg" alt="Picture" style="width:auto;max-width:100%" /> </a> <div style="display:block;font-size:90%"></div> </div></div>  <div class="paragraph">Next, a drizzle of olive oil for flavor:</div>  <div><div class="wsite-image wsite-image-border-none " style="padding-top:10px;padding-bottom:10px;margin-left:0;margin-right:0;text-align:center"> <a> <img src="https://www.crowdensatz.com/uploads/3/0/2/0/30202879/21top2_orig.jpg" alt="Picture" style="width:auto;max-width:100%" /> </a> <div style="display:block;font-size:90%"></div> </div></div>  <div class="paragraph">Then, a thin layer of hand fresh tomato sauce:</div>  <div><div class="wsite-image wsite-image-border-none " style="padding-top:10px;padding-bottom:10px;margin-left:0;margin-right:0;text-align:center"> <a> <img src="https://www.crowdensatz.com/uploads/3/0/2/0/30202879/22top3_orig.jpg" alt="Picture" style="width:auto;max-width:100%" /> </a> <div style="display:block;font-size:90%"></div> </div></div>  <div class="paragraph">At this stage the dough was slipped into the oven (500 degrees) and let parbake for three minutes. The crust puffed up nicely and it was removed and bean puree was applied. Note that the pizza peel changed because I use the wooden one to put the pizza into the oven and the metal one to remove it:</div>  <div><div class="wsite-image wsite-image-border-none " style="padding-top:10px;padding-bottom:10px;margin-left:0;margin-right:0;text-align:center"> <a> <img src="https://www.crowdensatz.com/uploads/3/0/2/0/30202879/24top5_orig.jpg" alt="Picture" style="width:auto;max-width:100%" /> </a> <div style="display:block;font-size:90%"></div> </div></div>  <div class="paragraph">After the beans it's time for lots of garlic!</div>  <div><div class="wsite-image wsite-image-border-none " style="padding-top:10px;padding-bottom:10px;margin-left:0;margin-right:0;text-align:center"> <a> <img src="https://www.crowdensatz.com/uploads/3/0/2/0/30202879/25top6_orig.jpg" alt="Picture" style="width:auto;max-width:100%" /> </a> <div style="display:block;font-size:90%"></div> </div></div>  <div class="paragraph">Are those minced anchovies I see?!</div>  <div><div class="wsite-image wsite-image-border-none " style="padding-top:10px;padding-bottom:10px;margin-left:0;margin-right:0;text-align:center"> <a> <img src="https://www.crowdensatz.com/uploads/3/0/2/0/30202879/26top7_orig.jpg" alt="Picture" style="width:auto;max-width:100%" /> </a> <div style="display:block;font-size:90%"></div> </div></div>  <div class="paragraph">Add just a bit - but just enough - mozzarella and slider her into the oven:</div>  <div><div class="wsite-image wsite-image-border-none " style="padding-top:10px;padding-bottom:10px;margin-left:0;margin-right:0;text-align:center"> <a> <img src="https://www.crowdensatz.com/uploads/3/0/2/0/30202879/30bake_orig.jpg" alt="Picture" style="width:auto;max-width:100%" /> </a> <div style="display:block;font-size:90%"></div> </div></div>  <div class="paragraph">Seven minutes later - out of the oven!</div>  <div><div class="wsite-image wsite-image-border-none " style="padding-top:10px;padding-bottom:10px;margin-left:0;margin-right:0;text-align:center"> <a> <img src="https://www.crowdensatz.com/uploads/3/0/2/0/30202879/31baked_orig.jpg" alt="Picture" style="width:auto;max-width:100%" /> </a> <div style="display:block;font-size:90%"></div> </div></div>  <div class="paragraph">Grated parmigiana cheese and a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil:</div>  <div><div class="wsite-image wsite-image-border-none " style="padding-top:10px;padding-bottom:10px;margin-left:0;margin-right:0;text-align:center"> <a> <img src="https://www.crowdensatz.com/uploads/3/0/2/0/30202879/32bakedandtopped_orig.jpg" alt="Picture" style="width:auto;max-width:100%" /> </a> <div style="display:block;font-size:90%"></div> </div></div>  <div class="paragraph">Annnnd - sliced!</div>  <div><div class="wsite-image wsite-image-border-none " style="padding-top:10px;padding-bottom:10px;margin-left:0;margin-right:0;text-align:center"> <a> <img src="https://www.crowdensatz.com/uploads/3/0/2/0/30202879/33sliced_orig.jpg" alt="Picture" style="width:auto;max-width:100%" /> </a> <div style="display:block;font-size:90%"></div> </div></div>  <div class="paragraph">Sooooo yummy! It's worth showing what that puffy surrounding crust looks like, right?

And to end the picture fest - a single delicious slice. The last one standing (but not for long!).&nbsp;</div>  <div><div class="wsite-image wsite-image-border-none " style="padding-top:10px;padding-bottom:10px;margin-left:0;margin-right:0;text-align:center"> <a> <img src="https://www.crowdensatz.com/uploads/3/0/2/0/30202879/41slice_orig.jpg" alt="Picture" style="width:auto;max-width:100%" /> </a> <div style="display:block;font-size:90%"></div> </div></div>  <div class="paragraph">And that's it - start to finish .
