Black Garlic and Mushrooms Pizza
Black Garlic is sweet and rich where mushrooms is earthy and savory, and a shared umami streak keeps the two pulling in the same direction.
Fermented black garlic cloves deliver deep, sweet, molasses-like umami complexity. Earthy, savory mushrooms add a meaty depth and woodsy aroma to pizza. On a Truffle Cream Sauce base, the sauce's earthy and aromatic character ties the two together. The combination is fully vegetarian.
