Ingredients:

1 teaspoon balsamic vinegar

¼ teaspoon black pepper (or to taste)

¼ cup fontina, shredded

1 clove garlic, minced

¼ teaspoon granulated sugar

¼ teaspoon kosher salt (or to taste)

½ cup milk (I used 1%)

3 tablespoons parmesan, shredded

1 grapefruit-sized ball of your favorite pizza dough

1 teaspoon rosemary

½ teaspoon salt

1 medium sweet potato, cut into about ¼" slices

1 teaspoon unbleached all-purpose flour

¼ cup water (if needed)

1 small yellow onion, sliced

Equipment:

baking sheet

bowl

frying pan

sauce pan

whisk

rolling pin

grill

Cooking instruction summary:

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.For the sweet potatoes: Place the sweet potatoes in a bowl, and pour in the olive oil, salt, pepper, and rosemary. Stir to combine, then spread on a greased baking sheet. Bake for 20 minutes, flipping once.For the onions: Heat the olive oil in a large skillet. Add the onions and cook for 10 minutes over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally. After 10 minutes sprinkle in the salt and sugar. Continue to cook for another 30-35 minutes, stirring occasionally and adding oil if the onions begin to stick. You can also add a bit of water if the onions look dry. Once they are caramelized, remove them from the heat and stir in the balsamic vinegar.For the sauce: In a small saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the flour and stir for 30 seconds to form a paste. Pour in the garlic, milk, salt, rosemary and nutmeg. Bring to a light boil, and whisk constantly for 5-7 minutes, until thickened. Remove from heat and stir in the cheese until smooth.Generously flour a surface, form your dough into a ball, then flatten with your hands. Use a rolling pin to roll the dough out to about 12-inch diameter. Brush some olive oil on one side. Place on the grill oil-side down, and cook for 10 minutes over medium heat (note: this will go faster if you are using a charcoal grill). Remove from the grill, and reduce the grill heat to low. Brush the other side of the dough with olive oil, then flip the dough so the cooked side is facing up. Top the pizza the cheese sauce, half of the fontina, potatoes, remaining cheese (fontina and parmesan), and an extra sprinkle of rosemary. Place back on the grill and cook on low heat for about 7-10 minutes, until the cheese is melted. Remove from heat, top with caramelized onions, and enjoy!

Food Joke

Four surgeons were taking a coffee break and were discussing their work. The first said, "I think accountants are the easiest to operate on. You open them up and everything inside is numbered." The second said, "I think librarians are the easiest to operate on. You open them up and everything inside is in alphabetical order." The third said, "I like to operate on electricians. You open them up and everything inside is color-coded." The fourth one said, "I like to operate on lawyers. They're heartless spineless, gutless, and their heads and their ass are interchangeable."
