What is Pinsa Romana?

Pinsa dates back to Ancient Rome and follows a completely different recipe from traditional pizza. The name comes from the Latin word Pinsere, meaning "to stretch", which explains its distinctive oval shape.

Unlike many pizza doughs, our Pinsa is made using a carefully balanced blend of flours and naturally fermented sourdough.

Every base is:

• Slowly fermented for 48 hours

• High hydration for a lighter texture

• Crisp on the outside

• Soft and airy inside

• Easier to digest than many traditional pizzas

It's pizza but not as you know it.

At Bbuona, every Pinsa is topped using authentic Italian produce including:

• Organic tomato sauce

• Fior di Latte mozzarella

• Buffalo mozzarella

• Parma ham

• Burrata

• Italian sausage

• Fresh basil

• Cerignola olives from Puglia

Every ingredient has been chosen to celebrate genuine Italian flavours rather than overloading the pizza.
