Bertolli Chefs Table: Pizza
Special Events • Tags: arugula, Bertolli Chef's Table, Bertolli Vodka Sauce, fennel, Gruyère, mozzarella, pancetta, pizzettes
As some of you may remember, we’re a part of the Bertolli Chef’s Table series on their newly revamped website. Each month, the Chef’s Table features an Italian food genre highlighting recipes from three chefs with varying cooking styles. It might be too much to consider ourselves “chefs”, so we’ll stick with cooks. Every month, you get three very distinct takes on a dish, incorporating one of Bertolli’s wonderful sauces in each recipe. This month’s Chef’s Table highlights a staple in Italian cuisine that just about everybody loves–pizza! We put a modern spin on your traditional Italian cheesey pie by making bite-sized pizzettes, subbing a crispy polenta cake for the traditional pizza dough. The recipe features Bertolli’s Vodka sauce, along with some of our favorite ingredients: fennel, arugula, pancetta, mushrooms and gruyere cheese. Check out the full recipe here. And, if you haven’t already, peep our Chef’s Tables from the previous months. We guarantee you’ll find good stuff!

And then there were those Hog Island oysters that had raw oyster slurping virgins literally taking shots by the end of the night. We left San Francisco raving about the pies and oysters for days (weeks maybe). It didn’t take long for us to run through idea after idea. Somewhere along the line, there was a conversation about oyster stuffing that had all the lights going off in our heads. We had to make an oyster stuffing-style pot pie, and we had to make it taste good. With hopes of making the best little oyster stuffed pot pies in all of the land, we went to work.
