Pizza is a constant source of inspiration. If I love the classic Neapolitan or Roman version, I never say no to a small original part! The pear – gorgonzola combination is one of my favorites so I didn’t hesitate to prepare this recipe. The caramelized pear, the bubbly cheese, the chopped hazelnuts: a perfect little bouquet of flavors that I highly recommend! I hope you will try and enjoy this pizza!
