Directions
- In a bowl, mix the yeast, sugar and water until all ingredients are well dissolved. Set aside. In another bowl, combine the flour and salt. Pour the liquid mixture into the dry mixture.
- Form a dough and knead it for 5 to 7 minutes, until it is smooth and does not stick to the work surface. (You may need to add a little flour while kneading.) Then place the dough in a deep bowl covered with a dishcloth. Let rest in a warm place for 30 to 40 minutes. After about 40 minutes, the dough should have doubled in size.
- Meanwhile, in a frying pan, cook the bacon strips until they are golden brown on both sides. Drain the bacon on paper towels to remove excess fat. Set aside.
- Flatten the air out of the dough with your fingers. Knead the dough again and let it swell a second time (30 to 40 minutes). Roll out the dough and spread it on the pizza pan. Then add the topping in the following order: olive oil (in fillets), basil, Parmesan and fontina.
- Bake in the oven for 10 minutes at 250°C (475°F). Meanwhile, separate egg whites from yolks.
- After 10 minutes of baking, remove the pizza from the oven and add the bacon. Drizzle the egg whites all over the pizza.
- Place in the oven again and bake for 5 minutes. Remove the pizza from the oven again and carefully place the 5 egg yolks (one near each corner and one in the centre of the pizza).
- Place the pizza in the oven one last time and bake for another 3 to 5 minutes. (The centre of the yolks should remain runny).
- Serve the pizza immediately and take a nice piece while there is still some left over.
Tips
- Allow 2 hours for the dough to rise.
