Mt Warning Smoked Ham
Smoked Ham Panuozzo
The Amalfi Coast's answer to the sandwich - a length of wood-fired pizza dough split, stuffed with our smoked ham, melted mozzarella, rocket and tomato, then flashed back through a hot oven until the bread crackles.
Inspired by Adapted from Vincenzo's Plate Panuozzo di Gragnano.
Method
- 1
Heat your oven as hot as it will go (250°C+) with a pizza stone or heavy tray inside for 30 minutes.
- 2
Stretch the dough into a long oval about 30cm × 15cm on baking paper. Brush lightly with olive oil and season with salt.
- 3
Slide onto the hot stone and bake 6–8 minutes until puffed, golden and just lightly charred. Do not overbake - it goes back in.
- 4
Pull from the oven and slice horizontally through the middle like a sandwich, opening it like a book.
- 5
Layer the bottom half with mozzarella, then tomato slices and a pinch of salt.
- 6
Close the panuozzo and return to the oven for 2–3 minutes, just until the mozzarella melts.
- 7
Open again and immediately layer over the Mt Warning Smoked Ham and rocket. Drizzle with olive oil, finish with cracked pepper, close, slice in half and serve.
Cook's tips
- →Add the ham after the second bake - heat dulls the smoke flavour.
- →Drain the mozzarella well on paper towel or the bread goes soggy.
