Tear or dollop Burrata in scattered mounds rather than spreading it edge to edge. This creates pockets of melted richness against the Pistachio Pesto sauce and allows the crust to stay crisp between bites.

Frequently Asked Questions
Should I use Burrata as the only cheese on a Pistachio Pesto pizza?

What other toppings pair well with Burrata and Pistachio Pesto sauce?
Prosciutto and Cherry Tomatoes are excellent companions for this combination. Prosciutto adds a complementary flavor dimension, while Cherry Tomatoes provides additional contrast that rounds out the overall pizza. You can use all three toppings together for a well-balanced pie.
