Taleggio & Caramelised Onion Pizza, known in Italy as Pizza con Taleggio e Cipolla Caramellata, is a rich and flavourful white pizza that balances creamy cheese with sweet, slow-cooked onions. Delicate slices of Taleggio melt beautifully over the pizza base while caramelised onions add depth and subtle sweetness, enhanced with a touch of balsamic vinegar.
