Pimp Your Pizza - Tricks from the Pro

Here are a few ideas to pimp your pizza with simple tricks because there's more than just Pizza Salami and Capricciosa. Our pizzaiolo Filippo Licciardo always surprises with new creations. We asked him for tips on pizza toppings with the wow effect. He gets enthusiastic and I get hungry with all the delicacies he lists. Here are a few tips:

Tip 1: Prepare Ingredients

The more time you invest in preparing your ingredients, the more intense their flavor will be. A simple trick is grilling vegetables before placing them on the pizza. The marks from the grill rack provide aesthetics, and the roasted flavors add taste to your pizza. Fresh pesto after baking or an extraordinary cheese will delight your guests. Even braised tomatoes for the sauce intensify the flavor.

Tip 2: Make Creams

Who says that only tomato sauce goes on the pizza? Prepare a vegetable cream, for example from grilled eggplant or pumpkin, and enjoy a delicious vegetarian Pizza Bianco. If you don't want to miss out on tomatoes, shine with homemade pesto after baking. Many fresh herbs are suitable for creating a new and surprising taste. A mint pesto gives your pizza a new note. And those who know their way around in the forest and field will find wild garlic, goutweed, and other wild herbs that, when processed into pesto, perfectly complement a pizza with fresh chanterelles or potatoes.

Tip 3: Topping with Crunch

It is clear that we place some fresh and high-quality ingredients on the pizza only after baking to retain their full flavor. Mortadella, Serrano ham, or arugula remain cold. But have you ever tried making your pizza topping crunchy? You can mix nuts or breadcrumbs with Parmesan, melt them, and let them cool. Sprinkle over the pizza, and you'll have a great crunch effect.

Feel free to comment on your tricks for a bit of wow on the pizza! We look forward to it.
