Pizza con Asparagi Crudi e Limone

A spring pizza baked with mozzarella, then generously topped with raw asparagus shaved into ribbons and Parmigiano Reggiano, all brightened with lemon. It preserves the young stems' sweetness and bite.
Pizza con Cavolo Rosso e Carote

Pizza con Insalata di Finocchi

A mozzarella pizza baked first and crowned with a Sicilian-style salad of shaved fennel, orange, and olives. Its sweet-tart freshness makes for an especially light slice.
Pizza con Puntarelle

Pizza con Radicchio Crudo e Noci
