Preparation

Step 1

in a small sauce pan over medium high heat cook the balsamic vinegar until reduced by 1/2, about 3-5 minutes, remove from the heat and allow to thicken.
heat the oven to 400 degrees, and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. using a sharp knife, carefully slice (not going all the way through the dough!) a border about 1/4-1/2" around the dough. bake for 12-15 minutes or until golden.
remove from the oven and lightly press down the middle to make it flat and even. sprinkle with a little of the olive oil marinade, mozzarella, chopped tomatoes, and drizzle with reduced balsamic vinegar. enjoy
