Pizza Bianca with Prosciutto
Pizza Bianca with Prosciutto brings a crisp, grill-kissed crust topped with ricotta’s mild richness, milky mozzarella, and salty prosciutto. Finished under the broiler for a golden, bubbly top and a hit of fresh basil, it balances smoky notes with creamy pockets of cheese. Ideal for a relaxed dinner or a shareable appetizer straight from the grill.
