No red sauce — ricotta, mozzarella, garlic, olive oil.

White Ricotta Pizza

The White Ricotta is the pie for people who think red sauce gets in the way. Dollops of creamy ricotta, a layer of mozzarella, fresh garlic, and a finish of olive oil — clean, rich, and the kind of pizza that converts skeptics. It's a quiet best-seller and a favorite of our regulars who order the same thing every week.

White Ricotta Pizza

What goes on it

  • Fresh whole-milk ricotta, dolloped across the pie
  • Low-moisture whole-milk mozzarella
  • Fresh minced garlic
  • Extra-virgin olive oil, brushed on the crust and drizzled after the bake
  • 24-hour cold-fermented dough — no tomato sauce

How it's made

We brush the stretched dough with garlic oil, lay the mozzarella, then spoon ricotta in even dollops so every slice gets some. Into the brick oven for 6–8 minutes. A final drizzle of olive oil and a crack of black pepper at the cut station.

Pairings

Add spinach or fresh tomato for a white-pie-with-greens. A Greek Salad on the side. A great base pie to add halal sausage or grilled chicken to.

Ordering tips

Get it well-done — the extra time in the oven deepens the garlic and crisps the bottom. Ask for a side of marinara if you still want something to dip the crust in.
