Brussels Sprouts and Caramelized Onion Pizza
Brussels Sprouts is earthy and umami where caramelized onion is sweet and rich, and a shared savory streak keeps the two pulling in the same direction.
Charred, halved Brussels sprouts deliver a nutty crunch and savory depth to fall and winter pizzas. Slowly caramelized onions add a deep, jammy sweetness with savory undertones. On a Brown Butter-Sage Sauce base, the sauce's nutty and toasty character ties the two together. The combination is fully vegetarian.
