Kale and Mushrooms Pizza
Kale is fresh where mushrooms is umami and savory, and a shared earthy streak keeps the two pulling in the same direction.
Crispy-edged kale leaves add a satisfying crunch and earthy, slightly bitter green flavor. Earthy, savory mushrooms add a meaty depth and woodsy aroma to pizza. On a Brown Butter-Sage Sauce base, the sauce's nutty and toasty character ties the two together. The combination is fully vegetarian.
