All-purpose flour, as needed for dusting
2 (1-pound) balls pizza dough
1-pound ball fresh mozzarella, thinly sliced
1 1/2 cups mixed grape tomatoes, halved
1/2 cup basil leaves, torn
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
3 tablespoons olive oil
Salt and ground black pepper
The fresh mozzarella has to be very dry for these rolls to keep their shape. If your fresh mozzarella is packed in water, lay the slices out on a few sheets of paper towel and let them dry out for a couple of minutes. You can also use shredded mozzarella to guarantee a successful turnout. COOK'S PERKS! As some of the mozzarella melts during baking and caramelizes on the parchment paper, it makes a delicious snack - to the victor go the spoils!
