A masterpiece: when the right chopped pistachios can make all the difference!

Pizza Pistacchio Passopomo

Rating: 8/10

The culinary world can be surprising, overturning all your certainties with just one bite! If you've always thought that a pizza with only chopped pistachios couldn't compete with one based on pistachio cream, you are dead wrong!

The pizzeria at the Passopomo agriturismo, in Santa Venerina (Zafferana Etnea, in the province of Catania), features a pizza with pistachio cream on the menu (check out the dedicated review here), but the real masterpiece is the pizza we invented ourselves: margherita + chopped pistachios (as shown in the photo).

Infinitely good!

It might be thanks to the delicate tomato and mozzarella base, or the top-tier quality of the pistachios crushed over the pizza, but the final result is stunning. With every bite where you encounter the generous amount of chopped pistachios, your palate will find the pistachio flavor it was looking for. Obviously, you have to keep in mind that it remains a delicate and natural taste, not comparable to what you get with roasting, but it will win you over.

It fully deserves a rating of 8/10 and is undoubtedly one of my favorite pistachio pizzas.

Adding to its value is the fact that, in all likelihood, it is the largest pizza you will ever eat in your life. Seeing is believing!
