Ingredients

  • 2 cups red wine
  • 1/3 cup confectioners' sugar plus additional for dusting, if desired
  • 2 pints fresh blackberries
  • 1/2 cup ricotta cheese
  • 1/2 orange, zested
  • Kosher salt
  • 2 baked 6-inch pizzas (without topping)

Method

  • Preheat the grill (or, alternatively, the oven to 350 degrees F)
  • In a large skillet, reduce the red wine by half over medium heat and whisk in the confectioners' sugar.
  • When the mixture thickens slightly, gently stir in the blackberries and simmer, 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Set aside.
  • Put the ricotta in a separate bowl.
  • Grate a little orange zest (about 1 teaspoon) over the ricotta, add a pinch of salt and stir to blend.
  • Spread an even layer of the ricotta on the pizzas and place on the grill to warm them.
  • Alternatively, bake for 3 to 5 minutes in oven.
  • Warm the blackberry mixture.
  • Note: if the blackberry liquid is thin, strain the blackberries out and reserve them.
  • Reduce the liquid until thick and mix it back in with the blackberries.
  • Top the pizzas with the fruit and serve immediately.
  • Dust with additional powdered sugar, if desired.
