Honey Smoked Salmon®, Summer Harvest, and Herb Flatbread
Shhhhh, tell no one! This is a salad disguised as a pizza and one of the healthiest, most beautiful, and delicious flatbreads you will every make. The toppings are all added after the pre-made wood-fired crust is baked off and at its crispy, golden best. Rather than heavy cheese as a base, this white pizza is dressed with a base layer mixture of mascarpone and parmesan, thinned with heavy cream and lemon juice. The colorful vegetables are tossed with a mixture of Agrumato (a type of olive oil from Abruzzo on the Costa dei Trabocchi on the Adriatic Sea where olives are crushed along with whole citrus fruits), a squeeze of fresh lemon juice, and honey. The secret weapon in this kaleidoscope pizza is Honey Smoked Fish Co.'s Honey Smoked Salmon® - a hint of light smoke over honey-coated hickory for a savory salmon that keeps things simple. The just out-of-the-sea fresh taste and texture make it awesome for digging inside the packaging with a fork, but we love the surprise and healthy addition of this original flavor flaked over our garden-inspired pizza. Finished with a flourish of fresh herbs and, if you have them, edible garden flowers, this vibrant, fresh flatbread is dressed to impress all the senses.

  8. Pile the vegetables on top of the crust and drop the pea trendrils, mint and basil leaves over the top. Finish with a flourish of sea salt flakes.

Kitchen Notes

The Honey Smoked Fish Co. Original Hot Smoked Honey Salmon may be found here. Buy extra and freeze it (makes the shipping more reasonable) to add to pasta, our Paws Up Salmon Spread, or our Mango Habañero Salmon Nori Tacos. Agrumato is a type of olive oil made in Abruzzo on the Costa dei Trabocchi, on the Adriatic Sea, yet easy to source online. The olives are crushed along with whole citrus fruits creating a super-aromatic, perfect finishing oil for salad, roasted or grilled vegetables, fish, and poultry. Make this recipe when fresh corn is at its sweetest summer peak, otherwise use frozen corn kernels. Use frozen peas, they are just better—picked and flash frozen to perfection. By all means substitute fresh peas if they are emerald green and super sweet. Edible flowers include violas, gerannium petals, borage blossoms, etc.
