The story

About the dish

Pizza alla Pugliese is anchored by mozzarella, tomatoes, olives, and onions. The documented 48-hour leavening develops the dough’s aroma and structure in the dish. The profile moves from soft, fresh dairy richness in mozzarella, through bright fruit and lively acidity in tomatoes, to a clear, distinctive flavor of its own in olives.

The Puglian reference in the dish points to a table formed by durum wheat, olive oil, seasonal vegetables, pastoral dairy and two long coastlines. In the dish, mozzarella contributes soft, fresh dairy richness, giving that cultural setting a sensory anchor.
