Medjool Dates and Balsamic Glaze Pizza
Medjool Dates is rich where balsamic glaze is tangy, and a shared sweet streak keeps the two pulling in the same direction.
Caramel-sweet Medjool dates add a luxurious, natural sweetness and chewy richness to gourmet pizza. 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.
