Banana Pepper and Salami Pizza
Banana Pepper is tangy, sweet and spicy where salami is savory and rich, a contrast that keeps every bite interesting.
Tangy, mildly sweet banana peppers add a bright crunch and gentle heat to pizza. Thinly sliced, garlicky cured salami adds a robust, peppery richness to pizza. On a San Marzano Red Sauce base, the sauce's sweet and bright acidity character ties the two together.
