Beef on a weck sandwich transformed pizza style. The sauce is key. Very quickly made with a short list of ingredients to get you through the speed lane at the check out.
Ingredients
- 1 premade thick crust pizza (like Boboli) shopping list
- 1/2 lb. of thin sliced deli roast beef, as rare as you dare shopping list
- 2 cups of fine shred colby jack cheese shopping list
- 1 cup of milk steeped with sliced onion, peppercorns/one bay leaf shopping list
- 2 tbsp of butter shopping list
- 2 tbsp of flour shopping list
- 4 tbsp of horseradish shopping list
- 1 tsp of caraway seeds divided use-half in sauce/half for crust shopping list
- 1/2 tsp of garlic powder shopping list
- 2 tsp of melted butter shopping list
- 1/2 tsp of coarse pretzel salt shopping list
How to make it
- Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
- Put your pizza stone in the oven to heat blistering hot while you make the sauce.
- Heat milk in small saucepan with one onion sliced in half, a few peppercorns and a bay leaf. Keep just below the scald point.
- Melt butter, add flour, whisking well in a separate pan.
- Strain hot milk, adding slowly to roux and stir until sauce thickens.
- Add the horseradish and 1/2 of the caraway seeds *crush the seeds slightly to release their aroma and flavor.
- Spread the horseradish sauce over the prepared crust.
- Top with rare roast beef, torn into shreds over the prepared pizza.
- Top with the shredded cheese.
- Brush edge of crust with melted butter and sprinkle with remaining caraway seeds and pretzel salt. (as much as you like, caraway is the flavor that makes the difference!)
- Bake in hot oven for 20-25 minutes. (ten minute preheat time for pizza stone-immeasureably improves the premade crust)
