How To Make fugazzeta

• Step 1
  Warm the milk to 100 to 105 F, and place in a small bowl.
• Step 2
  Stir the sugar into the milk and sprinkle the yeast over. Set aside for 5 to 10 minutes, until mixture is bubbly.
• Step 3
  Place the flour, 1 tablespoon olive oil, and salt in the bowl of a standing mixer and mix together briefly using the dough hook.
• Step 4
  Add the yeast/milk mixture and begin to knead, adding the water gradually. The mixture should come together as a soft, stretchy dough, pulling away from the sides of the bowl. Add a bit more flour if the mixture is too wet, and add a bit more water if mixture seems dry, crumbly, or overly firm.
• Step 5
  Knead for 5 to 10 minutes, until dough is smooth, soft and elastic.
• Step 6
  Oil a bowl with olive oil and place the dough in the bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and let the dough rise until doubled in size.
• Step 7
  While the dough is rising, peel and slice the onion into very thin strips. Place them in a bowl of cold salt water and soak for 30 minutes. Drain onions well and dry them with paper towels.
• Step 8
  Once the dough has risen, punch it down and divide dough into two pieces. Roll each half into a smooth ball.
• Step 9
  Pour 3 tablespoons of olive oil into a 12-inch pizza pan or cast iron skillet. Place one ball of dough in the middle of the pan and flatten gently with your fingers. Let dough relax for 10 minutes.
• Step 10
  Continue to flatten dough into the pan, flattening it and pushing it toward the sides of the pan, letting it relax in between until dough covers the bottom of the pan.
• Step 11
  Oil the counter and roll the other piece of dough into a 12-inch circle, letting it relax in between until it holds its shape.
• Step 12
  Preheat oven to 450 F.
• Step 13
  Place the slices of mozzarella cheese over the dough in the pan.
• Step 14
  Sprinkle the provolone over the mozzarella. Place the other round of dough over the cheese and seal the edges of the two dough circles together.
• Step 15
  Top the pizza with the sliced onions.
• Step 16
  Drizzle a tablespoon of olive oil over the onions, and sprinkle with the dried oregano and some Parmesan cheese.
• Step 17
  Place the fugazzeta in the oven. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and crispy.
• Step 18
  Brown the onions under the broiler for the last 3 minutes of cooking if desired.
• Step 19
  Remove from the oven. Let cool for 5 to 10 minutes before cutting into slices to serve.
