My love for pizza is already well-documented on my baby of a food blog. I made the pilgrimage to Eataly in Chicago this weekend…actually, I went there twice in 24 hours! So, of course, we ate in the pizza and pasta restaurant and ordered a pizza similar to this with sausage, basil and black truffle cream. I’ve attempted my best re-creation here, and with some Eataly pizza dough that accompanied me on the trek back home. This pizza has a delicious rich truffle cream, made by reducing heavy cream and adding truffle butter to make a sauce that resembles alfredo, fresh sausage of any variety you like (I used a garlic sausage), and the crème de la crème of mozzarella, mozzarella di bufala, which is made from water buffalos milk. Substitute with any red chile flakes you have, but Calabrian chiles are worth seeking out or ordering online if you’re a chile lover like me and want to branch out.
