Gorgonzola and Caramelized Onion Pizza
Gorgonzola is tangy where caramelized onion is sweet, and a shared rich and savory streak keeps the two pulling in the same direction.
Italy's signature blue cheese adds a bold, tangy bite with rich, creamy veining. 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.
