Print Recipe Pin Recipe

Ingredients
  

  • 1 recipe your favorite pizza crust
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 1 bunch scallions
  • 1 tbsp EVOO
  • 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 2 radishes
  • Splash of light vinegar, rice, white wine, white balsamic
  • .25 pound wedge of Capriole Julianna
  • 1 tbsp tarragon leaves or chives
  • Honey, for drizzling
  • Salt and pepper

Instructions
 

  • Heat oven to 425°F. Place pizza stone, pan, or baking sheet in the oven to preheat.
  • Prepare or roll out pizza crust. Let rest while preparing the scallions.
  • Slice the scallions on an extreme bias. Cook over medium-high heat with butter for 6-8 minutes, until the scallions are bright green, soft, with a few crispy spot. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Carefully remove the hot stone, pan, or sheet from the oven and place pizza crust on the hot pan. Drizzle with olive oil and spread on a thin layer of mustard. Scatter scallions evenly over the crust.
  • Bake for 10-12 minutes, until the crust is golden brown and crisp.
  • While the pizza is in the oven, thinly slice the radishes. Place in a small bowl with a splash of vinegar. Set aside.
  • Thinly slice the Julianna. Don't remove the rind!
  • Chop the tarragon leaves or chives.
  • Remove the pizza from the oven and top with the sliced Julianna and let the residual heat of the pizza slightly melt the cheese.
  • Scatter the radishes and herbs over the top and drizzle with honey.
  • Slice and serve.

Notes

*If you think your crust will take longer, feel free to add the scallions halfway through cooking. But they should be able to last about 20 minutes in a hot oven. Or if you are using a premade pizza crust and it doesn’t need that much time in the oven, cook the scallions a bit longer on the stove.
