Ingredients

Bahn Mi Sauce:

  • 1 teaspoon rice vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon honey
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1 teaspoon soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon hoisin

Quick Pickled Carrots and Onions:

  • 1 cup red wine vinegar
  • 1 cup water
  • 3 tablespoons white sugar
  • 2 tsp. sea salt
  • 1 bunch carrots julienne peeled
  • 1/2 a red onion shaved thin

Pizza:

  • 1 lb pizza dough
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 cup fresh cilantro leaves
  • 2 red Fresno peppers thinly sliced
  • 2 persian cucumbers thinly sliced

Instructions

For the Quick Pickled Carrots

  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the red wine vinegar, water, sugar and salt and stir to combine. Add the carrots and onions and toss them around in the pickling juice. Set aside for at least 30 minutes. These can be stored, covered, in the fridge for a week.

For the Banh Mi Sauce

  • In a small bowl, combine the rice vinegar, honey, sesame oil, soy and hoisin sauce and whisk until smooth. Set Aside.

For the Pizza

  • Preheat your oven to 500 degrees.
  • Divide the pizza dough in half. Stretch out each half of pizza dough using your hands in a circular motion, then lay it on a flat surface and flatten it out using a rolling pin. If you have a pizza peel, sprinkle some flour on it and place the stretched out dough on the peel. Once your dough is flat and ready to be heated, use a spoon to spread some olive oil all around the dough leaving a little bit for the crust. Pop your pizza in the oven and bake for 12-14 minutes. Repeat with the remaining dough.
  • Once baked, remove the pizza from the oven and slather with equal parts of the sauce. Top with the quick pickled carrots, cucumbers, cilantro and fresno peppers.
