With smoked salmon, capers, sour cream and dill, this easy-to-prepare white pizza has never been so fancy!

Ingredients

Scale
  • For the pizza:
  • 2½ cups (320g) all-purpose flour
  • 1 pinch of salt
  • 1 teaspoon active dry yeast
  • 1 cup (250 ml) lukewarm water
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil

For the topping:

  • 3/4 cup (25 cl) sour cream or crème fraîche
  • 7 oz (200g) smoked salmon
  • 2 Tablespoons (30g) capers
  • 1 Tablespoon pine nuts (optional)
  • Fresh dill
  • Freshly ground black pepper

Instructions

  1. For the pizza dough: in a large mixing bowl, mix the flour with the pinch of salt.
  2. In a measuring cup, combine the lukewarm water with the active dry yeast and the olive oil. Let sit for about 10 minutes.
  3. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ones, stirring until combined. Knead the dough for about 3 minutes by hand.
  4. Form a ball with the dough and transfer to a large clean bowl, covered with plastic wrap. Let rise at room temperature until doubled in size, at least one hour.
  5. Place the dough on a large sheet of parchment, then shape and stretch until you have a thin 12-inch circle. Cover with a clean towel until ready to use.
  6. Preheat the oven to 450°F (220°C). When the oven is ready, brush the edges of the pizza dough with olive oil and preheat the pizza for about 10 minutes.
  7. Remove from the oven and spread the sour cream on top of the pizza. Add the smoked salmon and bake for about 5-10 minutes maximum (you don’t want the salmon to be cooked through).
  8. Once ready, add the capers, the pine nuts (previously toasted in a pan without any fat) if any. Display some fresh dill, sprinkle some black pepper and serve immediately.
