The Best 3-Cheese White Pizza

HOW TO MAKE THE BEST WHITE PIZZA:

1. Start with ready-to-bake refrigerated pizza dough. Toss the dough and using fingers, spread onto pizza pan. Generously drizzle with extra-virgin olive oil. Sprinkle with garlic powder.
2. Top with freshly grated mozzarella. I prefer to use a block of mozzarella cheese and freshly grate it before sprinkling on the pizza. It melts so much better than shredded cheese.
3. In a small bowl, stir together ricotta cheese, Parmesan Cheese, and salt.  This is what gives the ricotta cheese extra flavor so it isn’t bland!
4. Generously sprinkle with Italian herbs.
5. Bake at a high heat– 450 degrees to allow the crust to crisp on the bottom.
