Truffle and mozzarella pizza: the perfect pairing for a dinner with friends

There are countless toppings to make the Pizza Base Alimenta unique, but this is undoubtedly one of our favorite combinations! The pairing of the sweetness of melted mozzarella and the refined touch of black truffle shavings is a true spectacle for the palate, perfect for warming up autumn evenings with friends without spending hours at the stove.

Preparation

Preparing this delicacy at home is very easy and requires very few steps!

First, prepare the fresh ingredients. Take the fior di latte mozzarella, cut it into cubes and let it drain in a strainer for 15 minutes: this way you will remove the excess whey and the pizza base will remain super crispy!

Meanwhile, move on to the black truffle. If you are using it fresh, clean it gently with a soft-bristled brush and a slightly damp cloth to remove the dirt, then slice it into very thin shavings with the help of a mandoline or a special truffle slicer. If instead you use the one in a jar with oil, lightly drain the shavings from their dressing.

Now turn on the oven and preheat it to 200°C. Place the Pizza Base on a baking tray with parchment paper and distribute a nice generous layer of mozzarella over the surface.

Bake for about 5-6 minutes: the time needed to melt the mozzarella until it is perfectly golden and stringy.

Take the pizza out of the oven, lay it on a beautiful cutting board and complete the magic! Add the black truffle shavings on top of the still piping hot mozzarella (the heat will make all its aroma explode!), a drizzle of raw olive oil, a sprinkling of pepper and a few leaves of fresh thyme. Cut into slices and serve immediately, hot and stringy!

The taste of autumn ready in a few minutes!

It makes your mouth water just looking at it, doesn’t it? This pizza is proof that it takes very little to transform an ordinary dinner into a special moment.
