Pizza Principessa – Pink Pizza with Organic Beetroot Juice

Pizza Principessa is a playful pink pizza whose color comes from organic beetroot juice. The juice gives the dough its vivid appearance without leaving a noticeable beetroot flavor.

The dough is designed to be simple, quick to prepare, crisp, and suitable for occasions such as children’s birthday parties or a casual evening with friends.

Topping ideas

The original version follows the style of a classic Pizza Bianca, using sour cream instead of red tomato sauce. The pale topping creates a striking contrast with the pink crust.

• Replace the sour cream with crème fraîche or another cultured cream.
• Use tomato sauce if you prefer a more traditional pizza base.
• Try fresh goat cheese for a richer, tangier topping.
• Add other toppings according to taste, as with any homemade pizza.

Preparation overview

1. Prepare the pizza dough, incorporating beetroot juice to create the pink color.
2. Allow the dough to rest as required by the dough recipe.
3. Shape it into a pizza base and spread it with sour cream, crème fraîche, or tomato sauce.
4. Add the chosen cheese and toppings.
5. Bake until the base is crisp and the toppings are cooked and lightly browned.

The result is a colorful pizza with a crisp crust and a mild flavor that can be customized with either white or tomato-based toppings.
