Brussels Sprouts and Balsamic Glaze Pizza
Brussels Sprouts is earthy, savory and umami where balsamic glaze is tangy and sweet, a contrast that keeps every bite interesting.
Charred, halved Brussels sprouts deliver a nutty crunch and savory depth to fall and winter pizzas. A thick, syrupy balsamic reduction adds a tangy-sweet depth and dramatic drizzle. On a Brown Butter-Sage Sauce base, the sauce's nutty and toasty character ties the two together. The combination is fully vegetarian.
