Time 1h55m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/2 cup tomato puree, such as Mutti
2 sprigs fresh basil, torn
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 cup olive oil, plus 1 tablespoon to finish
22 ounces pizza dough
1/3 cup shredded ricotta salata
2 teaspoons dried oregano leaves
1/2 teaspoon flake salt

Steps:

  • Combine the tomato puree, basil, kosher salt and 2 tablespoons of the olive oil in a small bowl. Allow to sit for 1 hour to let the flavors marry. Remove the pizza dough from the refrigerator and bring to room temperature for an hour as well.
  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Drizzle the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil on a 9-by-13-inch rimmed baking sheet. Stretch the dough in the oil, flipping it back and forth and stretching it to fit the baking sheet. Use your fingers to make a few dimples in the dough. Spread the sauce evenly over the top all the way to the edges. Bake until bubbly and golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes.
  • Allow to cool for 5 minutes on the baking sheet, then remove to a wire rack to cool completely. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon olive oil and sprinkle with the ricotta salata, oregano and flake salt. Cut into squares and serve warm or at room temperature.
