Pizza Bianca

"Though its crust is inspired by the airy, raised crust common in Southern Italy, the flavor profile and elegant appearance of Trader Joe’s Pizza Bianca is inspired by one of our product developer’s favorite pies in all of Los Angeles. (Fun fact: there’s a sauceless, focaccia-based pie in Italy also called pizza bianca—this, however, is not that). The dough that forms the base of this Pizza Bianca is allowed to naturally rise for 24 hours before it’s spread with a creamy Parmesan cheese sauce and topped with mozzarella and sharp Parmesan cheeses, onion, and fragrant rosemary, at which point it’s baked in a wood burning oven. Dreamy, indeed. From there, about 15 minutes in your oven is all it takes to unleash Pizza Bianca’s allium-y allure and rich, savory cheesiness. (Be warned: guests or roommates will roam into the kitchen to investigate the enticing aroma, so prepare to share!) A juxtaposition of understated sophistication and satisfying, savory finger food, Pizza Bianca would be equally at home served alongside an aperitif at a cocktail party, or as the main course enjoyed while hunkered down on the couch during movie night. We aren’t here to argue if Pizza Bianca can truly be called pizza without a classic tomato sauce (that conversation is better left to the bots in the comments section), but we’ll confidently assert that you won’t find a better value on frozen pizza of this quality anywhere but your neighborhood Trader Joe’s."
