Bake in oven at 400 for 7 minutes.

While dough is baking, saute garlic in olive oil until soft and slice tomatoe (very thin).

Remove from oven and spread garlic on the crust and sprinkle with 4 cups of Italian 6 cheese blend.

Top that cheese with tomato and drizzle a little butter over tomato and add basil.

Put mozzarella cheese on top and bake for 7 more minutes.

White Cream Cheese

Cream cheese is a favorite as a dip, with appetizers and with desserts. It also goes hand-in-hand with your favorite bagel. Learn to make this soft, spreadable cheese at home using ingredients that you may already have, such as milk.





Ingredients:



  • Heavy cream
  • Whole milk
  • Mesophilic culture
  • Calcium chloride
  • Cheesecloth
  • Colander



Directions:


Mix in a large pot 2 to 3 cups of whole or goat's milk and 3 cups of heavy cream. Heat the mixture until it reaches between 72 and 80 degrees F.

Remove the pot from the stove's heat. Then, stir in 1/4 tsp of mesophilic starter culture. This ingredient forms a lactic acid that preserves the cream cheese. It also adds flavor. Mesophilic comes in foil packaging and can be found at any specialty cheese shop or online.


Add 1/4 tsp of calcium chloride liquid and 2 tbsp liquid rennet or rennet tablets to the pot. Feel free to add some salt to the cream cheese to taste. Stir the mixture, then cover the pot. Store the pot in the kitchen at room temperature.

Ripen the cheese for 24 hours in the same room. The cheese at this stage should look like yogurt.


Place some cheesecloth into a colander. Pour the cream cheese into the colander, then tie up the cheesecloth so that any remaining liquid drains.


Drain the newly formed cream cheese curds until they become solid. Transfer the cream cheese into a separate container, then mix until smooth and creamy. Refrigerate the cream cheese for one or two weeks, then serve it with crackers, chips, fruits or vegetables.

Grill on the George Foreman, in a grill pan.
 
If you're using the outside grill increase the breadcrumbs a bit to insure they don't fall apart.
