Pizza Quattro Stagioni
Transcription
Preparation
It is typically prepared using a tomato sauce and cheese.[1][2][3] Pizza quattro stagioni is most often made by adding artichokes, tomatoes or basil, mushrooms, and ham, prosciutto or olives to four separate sections of the pizza.[2] Other ingredients may also be used.[8] Fresh-cooked or canned artichoke hearts may be used.[3]
Some of the topping ingredients can be partially oven-dried so they do not make the pizza soggy.[4] Baking it on a pizza stone can also prevent sogginess.[4] It may be finished with olive oil drizzled atop the pizza.[3][2] The pizza can be sliced into wedges or into its four sections.[1][2] Pizza quattro stagioni can be vegetarian if ham is substituted by a vegetarian option.[9]
