Pizza Bianca with Speck & Ricotta, known in Italy as Pizza Bianca con Speck e Ricotta, is a rich and flavourful white pizza that skips tomato sauce in favour of creamy cheese and savoury cured meat. A crisp pizza base is brushed with olive oil and topped with mozzarella, soft ricotta and delicate speck, then baked until golden and bubbling. Finished with extra speck and a drizzle of olive oil, this authentic Italian recipe delivers bold flavour with elegant simplicity.
