3.8

Called bianca, or "white," because they are sauceless, these crispy pizzas are the essence of clean flavor. The toppings are added after the crusts come out of the oven, melting the cheese slightly. This recipe makes two round pizzas or four rectangular ones.

Ingredients

2 10-ounce cans refrigerated pizza dough
4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

2 cups (packed) arugula leaves
2 cups fresh Parmesan shavings (about 4 ounces)
