Instructions
- Gather Ingredients
Gather pizza dough, cheeses, olive oil, a scale, knife, grater, board, rolling pin, baking sheet, parchment, and oven mitts. · 5 min
What to look for: All ingredients measured and tools ready on the work surface
- Heat Oven
Heat the oven to 204°C / 400°F with a baking sheet inside so the dough meets strong bottom heat for a crisp base. · 15 min
What to look for: Oven fully heated and baking sheet hot
- Prepare Cheese
Grate the Parmigiano, dice the fontina, tear the mozzarella, and crumble the gorgonzola into separate bowls for even topping. · 6 min
What to look for: Cheeses are separated into small even pieces
- Shape Dough
Stretch the pizza dough on parchment into a thin round about 30 cm wide, leaving a slightly thicker rim to hold the melted cheese. · 5 min
What to look for: Thin center with a raised edge
- Oil Base
Brush the dough with olive oil, then scatter mozzarella and fontina across the center while keeping the rim mostly bare. · 3 min
What to look for: Dough surface lightly glossy with cheese spread evenly
- Add Strong Cheese
Add gorgonzola in small pieces and finish with Parmigiano so every slice gets creamy, sharp, and nutty cheese. · 2 min
What to look for: Blue cheese and grated cheese are evenly dotted over the pizza
- Bake Pizza
Bake on the hot sheet for 12 to 14 minutes until the rim is browned, the base is crisp, and the cheeses bubble together. · 14 min
What to look for: Golden rim, bubbling cheese, and crisp underside
- Serve Hot
Serve immediately, slicing while the cheese is molten and the crust still crackles for the classic bianca style. · 2 min
What to look for: Cheese flows slightly when sliced

Ingredient substitutions
Mozzarella
- Fontina: Use only if mozzarella is unavailable, though the pizza will be less milky and stretchy.
Gorgonzola
- Parmigiano: This keeps the recipe within the traditional cheese set but removes the blue cheese sharpness.
Fontina
- Mozzarella: The pizza will be milder and stretchier, with less buttery depth.
Parmigiano
- Gorgonzola: Use sparingly because the flavor becomes sharper and less nutty.
Olive oil
- Butter: Melt before brushing and expect a richer dairy aroma.
