My take on the four [[Cheese|cheese]] [[Pizza|pizza]]-dictated by [[Cheeses|cheeses]] available at the time.

This was very nice indeed. I think next time I would reduce the [[Tomatoes|tomatoes]] and try and find pairings for all of the [[Cheeses|cheeses]]. I would keep sliced [[Chillies|chillies]] & [[Cheddar|cheddar]], crushed [[Walnuts|walnuts]] & [[St Agur]] ([[Soft Blue cheese|soft blue cheese]]) but need some for [[Somerset brie]] and [[Mozzarella|mozzarella]]. Suggestions are very welcome!

===Method===

{{RecipeMethod
| Make 1 pizza per person
| Dust your work surface with [[Yellow cornmeal|yellow cornmeal]]
| Divide the [[Pizza dough|pizza dough]] into two and roll out into two thin 25.5 cm (10 inch) [[Pizzas|pizzas]]
| Prick the pizzas all over with a fork. This prevents it puffing up too much and burning while it is cooking
| With a deft move, slide the [[Pizza dough|pizza dough]] from the [[Pizza peel|pizza peel]], on to the preheated [[Pizza stone|pizza stone]].
| Cook on one side only for about 2 minutes or until lightly [[Browned|browned]].
| remove from the oven, flip and add the topping.
| Repeat for the second [[Pizza|pizza]] whilst you prepare the first.
| Meanwhile heat the [[Olive oil|olive oil]] and sauté the sliced [[Garlic|garlic]] until it just starts to colour, no more or it will be [[Bitter|bitter]]
| Drizzle the [[Pizza|pizza]] with the half of the [[Olive oil|olive oil]] and [[Garlic|garlic]] slices.
| Make a cross with the [[Basil leaves|basil leaves]] and top with the sliced [[Tomatoes|tomatoes]]
| Arrange the [[Cheeses|cheeses]] in the four quadrants-adding your chosen accompaniments to each cheeses; [[Walnuts|walnuts]] and [[Blue cheese|blue cheese]], [[Chillies|chillies]] and [[Cheddar|cheddar]], etc.
| [[Bake]] the [[Pizza|pizza]] until the [[Cheese|cheese]] starts to melt and bubble-this only takes a few minutes under a hot [[Grill|grill]].
| Keep the first pizza warm at the bottom of the oven whilst you make the second.
