    Title: Gorgonzola & Mortgage Lifter Tomato Pizza
    Categories: Pizza, Cheese, Breads, Vegetables, Chilies
    Yield: 4 Servings

    2 1/4 ts (1 pkg) active dry yeast
    1/3 c Warm water (110ºF/40ºC)
    1/2 c Whole wheat flour
    1/2 c All-purpose flour
    1 tb Vital wheat gluten *
    1 ts Extra virgin olive oil
    1/2 ts Kosher salt
    Cooking spray
    1 tb Cornmeal
    3/4 c (3 oz) shredded mozzarella
    1/2 c (2 oz) crumbled Gorgonzola
    2 Mortgage Lifter tomatoes;
    - into 1/4" slices
    2 tb Chopped fresh basil
    1 cl Garlic; minced
    1/4 ts Salt
    1/4 ts Crushed red pepper

    Mortgage Lifter tomatoes, a pink-fleshed beefsteak
    variety, are also often labeled "Radiator Charlie".
    Substitute another pink or red-fleshed beefsteak,
    if necessary.

    Dissolve yeast in 1/3 cup warm water in a large bowl;
    let stand 5 minutes. Lightly spoon flours into dry
    measuring cups, and level with a knife. Add flours,
    wheat gluten, oil, and 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt; stir
    until a soft dough forms.

    Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead
    until smooth and elastic (about 3 minutes). Place dough
    in a bowl coated with cooking spray, turning to coat
    top. Cover and let rise in a warm place (85º), free
    from drafts, 1 hour or until doubled in size. (Press
    two fingers into dough. If indentation remains, dough
    has risen enough.)

    Set oven @ 450ºF/230ºC.

    Punch dough down. Roll dough into a 10" X 14" rectangle
    on a lightly floured surface. Place dough on a baking
    sheet coated with cooking spray and sprinkled with corn
    meal. Cover and let rise in a warm place (85ºF/30ºC),
    free from drafts, 20 minutes.

    Sprinkle cheeses evenly over dough. Arrange tomato
    slices in a single layer over cheese. Combine basil
    and remaining ingredients in a bowl; sprinkle mixture
    evenly over tomatoes.

    Bake at 450ºF/230ºC for 12 minutes or until crust is
    golden brown. Cut pizza in 8 (5" X 3 1/2") rectangles.

    * Vital wheat gluten strengthens the dough. Look for
    it at health-food stores and large supermarkets.
