Pizza of the Month – January
January is the month of heavy sweaters, evenings on the couch, and the oven taking center stage in the kitchen again.
To warm up the winter, we’ve come up with a pizza that smells of home and seasonal ingredients: our Winter Pizza, rich, colorful, and perfect for sharing.
Crispy radicchio meets the creaminess of gorgonzola, the sweetness of Nobili Fresh Mozzarella balances the flavors, and a touch of walnuts adds that crunch that makes every bite special.
A simple yet generous combination, designed to turn an ordinary winter evening into a small ritual of taste.
Ingredients for 2 round pizzas (28–30 cm)
- 500 g of pizza dough (homemade or ready-made)
- 200 g of tomato sauce
- 200 g of Nobili Fresh Mozzarella, well-drained
- 100 g of sweet gorgonzola
- 1 small head of red radicchio (tardivo or variegated)
- 40 g of walnut kernels
- Extra virgin olive oil to taste
- Salt, pepper, and oregano if desired
How to prepare the Winter Pizza
- Prepare the base
Roll out the dough on two lightly oiled baking sheets or on a baking stone. Season with tomato sauce, a drizzle of oil, and a pinch of salt. - First bake
Bake the bases in a preheated oven at 230–250 °C for 5–7 minutes, just enough time for them to puff up slightly. - Add the cheeses
Distribute the Nobili Mozzarella pieces and sweet gorgonzola flakes over the surface, without completely covering the base: they will melt and blend together during baking. - Radicchio and walnuts
Cut the radicchio into strips and sprinkle it over the pizza. Finish with coarsely chopped walnut kernels. - Final bake
Return to the oven for another 8–10 minutes, until the edges are golden, the cheeses are melted, and the radicchio is slightly charred but still crunchy.
If desired, finish with a drizzle of raw oil and a grind of pepper.
An extra idea
Serve it hot, cut into wedges, perhaps with a side of radicchio and walnut salad to echo the flavors of the topping. It’s the perfect pizza to face the cold with taste, without complicated dishes but with real ingredients.
