The white pizza with potatoes and guanciale is certainly not a light pizza, but it gives you the unique satisfaction of having eaten a perfect pizza.
The alternative to putting the guanciale as I did or in a slightly lighter way is to cook the guanciale separately in a little pan, then drain it on absorbent paper and put it on the pizza.
This way the oil will not remain all on the surface of the pizza, but what can I say, it was really good like this.
Then I used guanciale petals, that is, guanciale cut into rectangles but thin, not into chunks.
We like our pizza thin, but of course, if you roll the pizza a little thicker, it will also have a little more crust.
Make it yourself and let me know!

Ingredients to make White Pizza with Potatoes and Guanciale
- 1 1/4 cups water
- 4 1/3 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tsp fresh yeast
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tbsp sunflower oil
- 6 oz mozzarella
- 2 medium-sized potatoes
- 7 oz guanciale petals
- Baking Pans Non-stick Round Pizza Pan
Preparation of White Pizza with Potatoes and Guanciale
First, prepare the dough by placing the water and yeast in a bowl, let it dissolve, then gradually add part of the flour, mix well, and add the salt.
Continue working the dough by adding the oil and the remaining flour until you obtain a homogeneous ball.
Let it rise for about 3 hours or until it doubles in size.
Once risen, pour the dough onto a floured surface, roll out two discs of dough, and place them on the appropriate pans previously greased to bake the pizzas.
Let rest for at least 30 minutes, then crumble the mozzarella over the surface of the pizzas. Using a mandoline, slice the potatoes (previously peeled and washed), then place the guanciale petals here and there on the potatoes.
Guanciale petals can be found already sliced in the refrigerated section of the supermarket.
Let the pizza rise a little more, just enough time for it to puff up a bit, then heat the oven to 482°F (or even more if your oven allows it) and bake the pizza for about 10 minutes.
