"Parmigiano-Reggiano, the king of cheeses."
-Mario Batali, Amazing chef
Even though there is a relatively high amount of fat and salt in prosciutto the intense flavor of the dry cured ham can really make a dish. Looking for rich, concentrated flavors, such as prosciutto, Parmigiano-Reggiano and the reduced vinegar makes for complex dishes.

Leftovers are good cold for breakfast.
1 tsp | extra virgin olive oil |
1/2 medium | white onion (sliced) |
8 ounces | crimini mushrooms (sliced) |
1/4 cup | balsamic vinegar |
1 ounce | Parmigiano-Reggiano (grated fine) |
1 ounce | prosciutto |
1/2 | whole wheat pizza dough |
spray olive oil |
Pizza is best baked on a pizza stone but a cookie sheet will work as well. Place the baking stone or cookie sheet in an oven that has been preheated to 500°F. Allow the baking suface to heat for at least 15-20 minutes.
Place the olive oil in a non-stick skillet pan over medium high heat. Add the sliced onion and reduce the heat slightly. Cook until the onions begin to soften. Add the mushrooms and balsamic vinegar.
Cook over medium heat, reducing the vinegar until it is a glaze covering the onions and mushrooms.
Using 1/4 of the pizza dough recipe (for each pizza), gently stretch into 8-inch rounds. Don't work too hard to get a perfectly round shape.
Arrange all the toppings so that they will be easy to place on top of the dough.
Once the dough is formed, place it on top of the hot pizza stone and spray lightly with olive oil.
Place the mushrooms first quickly followed by the prosciutto and then the cheese. Bake for 10 to 15 minutes until the edges of the crust is golden brown.
