You could have to essentially open your thoughts to do that pizza, however by now I hope you’ll be able to belief me that these flavors and textures work properly collectively. The creaminess of the beans, the pop of freshness from the entire lemon slices, the saltiness and smoothness of the Manchego, the tartness of the artichoke … it really works.
There actually is lots happening, and I do know you’ll like it. This pizza is definitely a tackle a pizza I did the primary time I competed in Parma in 2018. I used escarole there, however over time my tastes have modified and I actually want the pepper taste and the look of the micro watercress to the crunch of the escarole. Not understanding what the Italians would consider this pizza, and me being tremendous naive to worldwide competitions, I used to be shocked that they really preferred it. I believe you’ll too!
