Pizza with spicy cheese and lettuce
4 servings
60 minutes
Pizza with spicy cheese and salad leaves is a harmony of traditional Italian cuisine with an unexpected touch of freshness. Its history roots back to sunny Italy, where cheese and tomatoes are the soul of every dish. The crispy dough serves as the perfect base for the spicy cheese that melts to create a rich and slightly tangy flavor. Tomatoes add juiciness, while pickled salad brings light freshness and unusual texture. This pizza is great for both everyday dinners and special occasions, adding a note of gastronomic experimentation. It pairs best with a glass of young red wine or a lemon Italian drink. Each serving is a symphony of flavors where the warmth of the oven, the sharpness of the cheese, and the tenderness of greens create true culinary delight.
