Taleggio and Caramelized Onion Pizza
Taleggio is tangy and earthy where caramelized onion is sweet and savory, and a shared rich streak keeps the two pulling in the same direction.
A washed-rind Italian cheese that melts into a luxuriously gooey, tangy, and slightly funky layer. 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.
