What is Pinsa?

From Rome, with Love

A Roman-Style Pizza Crust

In the days of Ancient Rome, there originated a recipe so progressive it still graces dinner tables today. This product was called pinsa, and it was revered for its incredible flavor, mesmerizing fragrance, and crisp texture. But what is pinsa?

Simply put, pinsa is a Roman-style pizza crust that is an upgrade from traditional pizza. With Pinsa Romana America’s innovative par-baked crusts, pinsa is the healthiest, most delicious meal that will deliver a taste of Rome from shelf to table within minutes!

Pressed to Perfection

Pinsa gets its name from “pinsere,” meaning “to press,” and was deemed so delicious, even the gods craved this crisp, airy crust. The careful practice of hand-pressing pinsa dough further enriches the flavor profile as it ensures the gases created during the fermentation process are preserved. This also lends to pinsa’s supple, cloud-like structure, creating a product that, while practically weightless, is packed with flavor.

Designed for Dynamic Flavor

A Revolutionary Recipe

There are several elements that make pinsa so divine, the first of which is its revolutionary blend of non-GMO flours: soy, rice, sourdough, and zero wheat flour. When combined with up to 80% hydration for high digestibility, these ingredients create a vegan, gluten-friendly pizza crust that’s soft on the inside, crisp on the outside, and simply irresistible.

Pinsa is engineered to be an upgrade to traditional pizza. We have designed our pinsa dough to endure a 48 to 72-hour fermentation process. This process is integral to creating pinsa’s dynamic flavor profile, making it an important part of the dish rather than a vehicle for toppings.
