How to Make White Pizzas
- What
Makes a White Pizza White? White pizzas are made without
tomato sauce. Instead of spreading a tomato-based sauce across the
crust, olive oil and garlic is usually used—though some recipes
call for a white sauce. Usually, white pizzas call for white cheeses
such as mozzarella, parmesan, Romano, provolone, gorgonzola, feta,
and Asiago.
