Four Cheese Roman Thin Crust Pizza
Pizza Quattro Formaggi Romana
The Roman thin-crust pizza topped with four cheeses of mozzarella, gorgonzola, fontina, and parmigiano melted together over a blank base, finished with cracked black pepper and a drizzle of honey for the sweet-savoury counterpoint to the cheese richness.

Instructions
1
Prep
Drain torn mozzarella on kitchen paper for 5 minutes. Preheat oven to maximum (250–280°C) with pizza stone on middle shelf for 25 minutes. Divide dough in half. Stretch each portion on a semolina-dusted surface into a 30cm thin round. Transfer each to a semolina board. Brush each with 1 tbsp olive oil, sprinkle salt evenly.
2
Build
For each pizza, distribute cheeses in quarters across the oiled base—mozzarella, gorgonzola, fontina, and parmigiano grated evenly across all four zones. Each slice will feature a distinct cheese character.
3
Bake
Slide first pizza onto hot stone. Bake at maximum heat for 6 to 8 minutes until crust is deeply golden and crisp at rim and cheeses have melted and fused at boundaries. Remove and repeat with second pizza.
4
Finish
Lift each pizza onto a board. Drizzle 1 tsp honey in a fine zigzag across the hot cheese of each. Scatter coarse black pepper evenly, drizzle each with 1 tsp grassy olive oil, and add 4 fried sage leaves to each pizza.
5
Plate
Slice each pizza and serve immediately while cheeses are molten and the crust is crisp.
