DaVinci Storyteller Experience: Pizza Bianca with Capers

Authentic Pizza Bianca with salty capers


The crust is a crispy canvas painted with fragrant olive oil!



In America, a pizza bianca is much different (heavier and cheesier version) than the authentic, Tuscan original.  In Tuscany, this pizza is simply an oven-crisped dough that has been drizzled with extra virgin olive oil and kissed with sea salt. That’s it!  And, it tastes like perfection.

 As an homage to the caper berries that I noticed climbing the walls of certain buildings, I decided to add a caper berry garnish to this pizza bianca, with just a hint of Tuscany’s Pecorino Romano.
