Pizza preparation:

1. Prepare your Maximus wood-fired oven:

Turn on the oven and let it heat up to a temperature of 300°C. This intense heat, typical of wood-fired ovens, allows you to obtain a perfectly crispy pizza in just a few minutes.

2. Preparing the mushrooms:

Thoroughly clean the autumn mushrooms, then slice them. Heat a little olive oil in a pan, add the chopped garlic, then sauté the mushrooms with salt, pepper and sprigs of thyme until golden brown and the cooking liquid has evaporated.

3. Assembling the pizza:

Roll out the pizza dough on a floured surface. Spread a thin layer of crème fraîche over the dough, then add the grated mozzarella. Arrange the sautéed mushrooms on top and sprinkle with pieces of fresh goat cheese.

4. Cooking :

Place the pizza in the hot wood-fired oven and cook for approximately 4 to 5 minutes, until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted.

5. Finishing :

Once out of the oven, drizzle with a little olive oil and add a few sprigs of fresh thyme for decoration.

Cooking tip:

For an even more authentic taste, add a touch of grated truffle to the pizza just before serving. The warmth of the wood-fired oven will enhance this autumnal delight.
