PINSA with mortadella, pecorino cheese, and balsamic dressing
Some people prefer it over its more famous “cousin” pizza, praising the many differences, but just like pizza, pinsa is loved all over the world. Over time, the way it is enjoyed and topped has evolved. Originally a leftover dish in ancient Rome, it has become a true gourmet delight without renouncing its “humble” origins. What distinguishes pinsa from pizza is not only its typically elongated shape but also its substance. Made with a mix of flours, more water, and less yeast, but with a long leavening process, pinsa is light and digestible, suitable for all ages, every season, and any time of day.
Our pinsa is enriched with genuine and delicious ingredients such as mortadella, Pecorino cheese, and a balsamic dressing that we particularly love, because just a drop of Goccia Nera is enough to sign your dishes as if they were masterpieces. In less than 15 minutes with our pinsa base you can prepare a colorful, healthy, tasty, and nutritious lunch, dinner or afternoon snack. With small variations in the toppings, this recipe will always seem new, and each time it will be like the first: a love at first bite.

Ingredients
1 Pinsa Base by Pizza Food Love
100 g of Mortadella Bologna PGI by Emilia Food Love
80g of mozzarella cheese
Semi-aged Pecorino by Emilia Food Love
Fresh lamb's lettuce
Pistachio crumbs
Goccia Nera - aged balsamic dressing by Emilia Food Love
Method
-
Distribute the mozzarella cheese over the pinsa base.
- Bake in the oven at 180 °C (356 °F) for about 10-13 minutes, until the mozzarella cheese is melted.
- Then remove the pinsa from the oven and top it with mortadella, pistachio crumbs, lamb's lettuce, pecorino flakes, and a generous drizzle of Goccia Nera.
Tip
For a softer texture, pistachio pesto is a practical and tasty alternative to the pistachio crumbs. If you desire an even bolder and more intense flavor, you can substitute the semi-aged Pecorino by Emilia Food Love with aged Pecorino or our Strong Provolone.
Pistachio CHEESECAKE
As surprising as its origins, cheesecake was born in Ancient Greece as a dessert to be served during the Olympic Games, and from there it set out to conquer the entire world. A symbol of the Esperanto movement and today a delight suitable for every season of the year thanks to its infinite versions, cheesecake is a dessert loved by both adults and children.
Our Pistachio Cheesecake is simple to prepare and garnish, even simpler to enjoy and prepare another time, perhaps with a small variation: our Salted Caramel Spread will give you an even more enveloping and unique flavor.
SMALL TAGLIATELLE TIMBALES
Some dishes are named after the tool needed to make them: this is the case of the protagonist of our new recipe which owes its creation and identity to the tambourine-shaped mold originally used to prepare it. Today we choose other methods of preparation, but we continue (and will always continue) to call it "timbale".
Pasta, rice, meat, fish, sweet or savory: every country, every family, every cooking enthusiast has its own version. Our idea is a simple, but with a great visual impact. The colorful and fresh Small Tagliatelle Timbales conquer the palate and catch the eye.
Cheese MEATBALLS
From ancient Persia to the Middle East, from Spain to our cuisine: the journey of meatballs has been a long one, crossing countries and centuries. Simple and fun, they are round like cherries, and just like cherries, one leads to another.
Our recipe for Cheese Meatballs with mild Provolone and aged Pecorino will conquer the whole family and will become your ace in the hole for an amazing aperitivo.
