Buffalo Tempe Pizza - Gumkowski Style

06.18.09

img00129A weekly favorite at our house -

1 Multigrain crust (whole foods - in the cooler section)
1 red bell pepper
1 package of tempe (we use 5 grain)
a ton of  fresh spinach
1 bag of shredded cheese (we like the Whole Foods Cheddar and Montery Jack combo)
a ton of Cholula

How to prepare:
- Let dough sit out covered on a plate for at least 2 hrs after it’s already thawed.
- Preheat oven to 475′ with pizza stone in it
- roll out dough to size of pizza stone, sprinkle a little flour underneath and a little on top so the roller doesn’t stick
- cut up tempe into cubes and sautee
- add peppers and sautee for another 5-7 minutes
- douse with cholula
- place dough on pizza stone and bake for 8-10 minutes checking every minute for bubbles & puncture with knife
- top dough with cheese, spinach, tempe mix, a little more cheese and a little more cheese for good luck
- bake at 475′ for 5 minutes

Enjoy with beer or wine and of course water to keep hydrated for training the next day!

    We’re breaking in our pizza stone and will let you know how it goes. Out with the old, in with yours.

    Also? Trying to make pizza the Gumkowski way. Not with tempe, but with heating the pizza stone first and baking the dough before putting toppings on. Adam couldn’t remember how BJ had prepared the dough & I thought about this post. Good thing you had Lijit to help me find it…

    Thanks for sharing the info and for the thoughtful wedding gift!
