This past Sunday I made one of my favorite bread-slash-pizza recipes: a catarina, or Katherine in English.
In Brazil, this bread is also called Pão Franciscano since it looks like a sandal wore by Franciscan monks.
Dough - in the bread machine in this order: 9 oz. water - 2 tablespoons canola or vegetable or olive oil - 1 tsp salt - 1 tbspoon Italian seasoning - 1 1/4 cup white flour - 1 cup dark rye/semolina/whole wheat flour - 2 tbsp brown sugar - 1 1/2 tsp yeast. Select 'dough'. Let dough rise for at least 3 hrs. Set oven for 400.
Open dough using a rolling pin. Cut out edges to make one big rectangle. Cut fringes into the dough from lateral edges toward the center about 1-2 inches. Don't cut the center.
Add ingredients to the center: tomato sauce, cheese, ham, tomatoes, onions, oregano leaves, olive oil.
Close dough one lateral fringe at a time, right and left then right and then left again, placing on fringe on top of the other slightly diagonal - see picture.
Sprinkle parmesan chesse. Put it in the oven at 350 for approx. 30 minutes.
Ir you have a baking stone, use it! The stone makes the baking process much faster, let it bake for approx. 20 minutes.
Serve with... salad, of course!
Other ideas for the toppings are: tuna, pepperoni, turkey franks in hot dog sauce, chicken in pesto or bbq sauce. You can turn this into a dessert too by adding vanilla essence to the dough instead of italian seasoning. Sprikle cinnamon on top and confectioner's sugar before serving. Play with it as you wish! Let me know what the result is... and send pictures too!!!
