Capricciosa sourdough pizza
A pizza with a rich history, our twist on the ever-popular Capricciosa is inspired by a traditional recipe from southern Italy, and pairs our slow-proved, wood-fired sourdough base with our classic tomato sauce and toppings of prosciutto cotto (cooked ham in Inglese), artichokes, creamy mascarpone, Tuscan rosemary, and Taggiasca olives from Liguria.
Take a slice
A delicious, ever-changing classic.
Capricciosa means capricious in Inglese — so it’s no surprise the recipe for this Italian classic changes from region to region. In that same spirit, we’ve added a twist to our own recipe.
Made from a ‘mother dough’ starter and slow-proved for 24 hours, our bakers wood-fire each pizza base at 400C on lava stone from Mount Etna. In the intense heat, the crusts rise, blister and char in authentic pizzeria fashion.
Then we top by hand with our classic tomato sauce, fresh artichokes that have been gently-handled to retain their natural violet colour, hand-torn ham, and salty-sweet, deep-flavoured Taggiasca olives from hard-to-harvest trees on rocky mountain outcrops in Liguria.
Quality ingredients
For 13 years and counting, we’ve travelled far and wide across Italy in search of homegrown ingredients and recipes that capture the country’s passionate, convivial spirit in all its delicious glory — because we believe that nothing brings people together like good food, shared.
Our packaging
Our Pizzas sit on a cardboard disc, wrapped in HDPE (European code #02) and then in a cardboard box. The cardboard is widely recycled in kerbside domestic collections. However, few local authorities in the UK are able to accept the film in the same domestic recycling, although it can be recycled alongside carrier bags in some supermarkets.
