Pizza Bianca, meaning 'white pizza,' evolved alongside the more commonly known red sauce pizza. Its origins can be traced back to ancient flatbreads, which were seasoned simply with herbs and olive oil. The absence of tomatoes, a relatively late addition to Italian cuisine after their introduction from the Americas, highlights its earlier roots. The addition of ricotta cheese, a staple in Italian cooking, further distinguishes it as a distinct regional variation.

Pizza Bianca is often enjoyed as a simple, satisfying meal or snack in Italy. It represents a return to the basics of Italian cooking, emphasizing fresh, high-quality ingredients and simple preparations.
Simplicity and Freshness
Pizza Bianca embodies the Italian culinary philosophy of using few ingredients of the highest quality. It is a celebration of the natural flavors of ricotta, garlic, and olive oil.
Regional Variations
While the basic concept remains the same, regional variations exist in the type of ricotta used (e.g., sheep's milk ricotta in Rome) and the addition of other ingredients like herbs (rosemary, oregano), cheeses (mozzarella, provolone), or even thinly sliced vegetables.
Social Gathering
Like other forms of pizza, Pizza Bianca is often enjoyed in a casual setting, shared among friends and family. It's a food that fosters connection and conviviality.

Pizza Bianca with ricotta, garlic, and olive oil offers a delightful balance of creamy, savory, and aromatic flavors.
The creamy ricotta cheese provides a rich, smooth base that contrasts beautifully with the crisp, airy crust. The garlic adds a pungent, savory element that is both bold and comforting. The high-quality olive oil contributes a fruity, peppery note that enhances all the other flavors and creates a luscious mouthfeel. The lack of tomato sauce allows these flavors to shine through unmasked, creating a more delicate and sophisticated taste experience.

Use High-Quality Ingredients
Opt for fresh, whole-milk ricotta cheese, extra virgin olive oil with a robust flavor, and fresh garlic. The quality of these ingredients will directly impact the overall taste.
Pre-Cook the Garlic
Gently sautéing the garlic in olive oil before adding it to the pizza mellows its flavor and prevents it from burning in the oven.
Don't Overload the Pizza
Pizza Bianca is best when the flavors are allowed to shine. Avoid adding too much ricotta or garlic, as this can make the pizza soggy and overwhelm the other flavors.
Get the Dough Right
A well-proofed, airy pizza dough is crucial. Consider using a Neapolitan-style dough recipe and allowing for a long fermentation period for the best results.
