Paying homage to Italian-grown produce, Crosta & Mollica, which simply means ‘crust & crumb’ in Italian, introduce the Vegana Pizza and Pizzetta. From its base to its toppings, the vegan sourdough pizza stays true to its Italian roots, while offering a delicious plant-based alternative for an Italian pizza night-in.
The pizza can also be purchased Pizzetta-style, offering a smaller-sized portion for a lighter meal, such as a lunchtime snack or a solo dinner.
The Vegana Pizza starts with the Crosta & Mollica signature sourdough base, crafted in traditional Neapolitan style, patiently proved for 24 hours before being fired in a wood oven, on lava stone from Mount Etna in Sicily.
The base is then covered with delicious tomato sauce, blended with caramelised balsamic onion to provide a delicate sweetness. The pizza is topped by hand, with a sprinkling of lightly grilled mushrooms, IGP Tropea red onions and florets of sweet broccolini. For a final finishing touch, a creamy sauce made from chickpeas, a traditional Italian kitchen staple, is added with rosemary, sea salt and olive oil, taking inspiration from the Ligurian chickpea pancake, Farinata.
Travelling far and wide across the country in search of the most authentic ingredients, Crosta & Mollica deliver the Vegana pizza, satisfying the Italian taste buds of today’s plant-based eaters. Celebrating fresh quality produce whilst avoiding any artificial ingredients, vegans no longer have to sacrifice their cravings for delicious authentic pizza. Encompassing the Crosta & Mollica Italian culinary spirit within each ingredient, one bite of the Vegana Pizza and you are transported to a local pizzeria in the heart of Italy. Buon appetito!
