  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2 teaspoon minced garlic
  • 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 1/2 cups garlic mashed Idaho potatoes
  • 4 medium tomatoes diced
  • 3 cups chopped green onions
  • 4 cups feta cheese crumbled

Pizza Dough

  • 2 packets active dry yeast 14g, 1/2 ounce, or 4 1/2 teaspoons
  • 2 teaspoons granulated sugar
  • 1 3/4 cup warm water (100-110 degrees F)
  • 3 3/4 cups high-gluten flour
  • 1/4 cup whole wheat flour
  • 2 teaspoons kosher salt
  • 1/4 cup olive oil plus as needed

Garlic Mashed Potatoes

  • 4 pounds baby red Idaho potatoes skin on boiled
  • 1/4 cup butter unsalted
  • 2 cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup pureed roasted garlic
  • 1/2 tablespoon white pepper
  • 1/2 tablespoon freshly-ground black pepper
  • 3 tablespoons kosher salt

Instructions

Pizzas

  • Roll out each dough ball on a floured surface. Slide dough onto a floured sheet pan or pizza stone.
  • Whip butter, salt, garlic and oregano in a food processor until well combined. Spread an even layer of garlic butter mixture onto each crust, to edges.
  • Spread mashed potatoes onto each crust, creating a layer about 1/4-inch thick, reserving 1 inch of crust at edges.
  • Sprinkle tomato, green onions and feta evenly among 4 pizzas.
  • Bake pizzas in oven heated to 450 degrees F for 15 to 18 minutes on a stone or 20 to 24 minutes on a sheet pan. Serve immediately

Pizza Dough

  • Combine yeast, sugar and water in a bowl and reserve for 5 minutes. Combine flours and salt in a separate bowl with dough hook, then pour olive oil on top. Add yeast mixture to flour mixture and mix until dough pulls from sides of mixing bowl.
  • Knead dough by hand on a moderately floured surface for about 15 seconds, then stop to allow dough to reshape. Repeat kneading process about 6 times. Split dough into 4 even balls, brush balls with olive oil, cover and reserve, refrigerated, for up to 2 days (at least 1 day for best result). For use, bring dough to room temperature for 10 minutes before rolling out for pizza.
