Unforgettable Kosher Pizza Recipes

The key to elevating your homemade pizza to truly unforgettable levels lies in one secret: quality ingredients. As you shop around, take the extra time to invest in fresh, locally sourced herbs and veggies. 

At Coletta, we set our pizza apart with homemade crust and marinara. Bring the same homey quality to your own meal! Check out our easy guide to making the perfect easy vegan pizza dough. 

Margherita

Start by collecting your ingredients: fresh crust, tomato sauce, basil, olive oil, salt, and chunks of “mozzarella.” 

This classic is a breeze to make. Simply spread your sauce in an even layer across the surface of your crust, sprinkle a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil, and begin carefully layering your pizza with “mozzarella” and fresh basil leaves. Don’t feel too much pressure to cover the entire surface of your pizza with toppings; with this classic, less is actually more. Ideally, you should still see plenty of red sauce between the bright green leaves and white “mozzarella.” 

From here, simply sprinkle a pinch of kosher salt to bring out the brightness of the flavors, and enjoy!

Another perk of this classic is the ease with which you can personalize it to your own tastes. Try a drizzle of balsamic vinegar, additional herbs, or diced garlic for a fresh take on this age-old meal. At Coletta, an extra sprinkling of toasted pine nuts adds a mildly nutty flavor to the finished product. 

Classic “Pepperoni”

This classic is nearly as easy as the Margherita. Take the same ingredients list as before, simply adding vegan “pepperoni” to the mix. Exchange the basil for fresh oregano. This herb adds a savory intensity to your dish that perfectly complements the sharp, salty “pepperoni.” Make the pizza as before, layer your desired amount of savory “pepperoni” slices, and enjoy!

Rather than using whole chunks, try running the “mozzarella” for this pizza through a food processor first, allowing it to more evenly spread over the surface. 

Wild Mushroom Pizza

While everyone loves a classic, there’s something to be said for a little extra love. Savory, salty, and perfectly seasoned, this filling wild mushroom pizza is guaranteed to be the talk of your party. 

Start by gathering your ingredients: wild mushrooms, truffle oil, cipollini onions, creamy “ricotta,” fresh rosemary, and crema.

Start by cooking all the veggie ingredients. In doing so, you remove excess moisture that might otherwise lead to a soggy crust. At Coletta, we sear our wild mushrooms and take the extra time to fully caramelize our onions to a sweet finish. 

Next, drizzle your oil across the surface of a lightly toasted crust. From here, add your “ricotta,” fresh rosemary, and crema. Sprinkle caramelized onions and wild mushrooms over the surface of your pizza, then bake in your oven at 475 degrees Fahrenheit until fully cooked. All that is left is to enjoy!
