Roman-style Pizza Bianca

Naples may be the home of the first ever pizza, but there’s another Italian city that’s a destination for truly great, original pizza – Rome. Throughout the city, you’ll find a classic local pizza style that features a crust that’s thicker than a Neapolitan, but much thinner than a deep-dish, with a dough that’s almost like a flat focaccia. 

Simple, yet packed with flavour, this tasty pizza is sold by the slice in bakeries across Rome as either pizza bianca (white pizza) or pizza rossa (red pizza), topped respectively with high quality extra virgin olive oil and salt, or tomato sauce. 

To get the base nice and crispy, our version is cooked at a low temperature for a longer period of time, resulting in an irresistible crunch. Designed to cook in your Ooni oven, our recipe brings the classic pizza bianca straight to your home. And while you may not be in the streets of Rome, we’re pretty sure these flavours will make you feel like you are.

Note

For the best-tasting pizza bianca, begin prepping your dough at least 24 hours in advance of cooking.
