Smoked Salmon and Red Onion Pizza
Smoked Salmon is smoky and rich where red onion is sweet and fresh, and a shared savory streak keeps the two pulling in the same direction.
Silky cold-smoked salmon adds a luxurious, briny elegance to pizza with its distinctive smoky flavor. Vibrant red onion rings add a milder, slightly sweet onion flavor with beautiful purple color. On a White Garlic-Parmesan Cream Sauce base, the sauce's roasted garlic and nutty character ties the two together.
