If there's one way to annoy an Italian, it's by putting a Greek dish on top of a pizza, but Franco Manco are showing the purists why bold ingredients deserve to be on a pizza, with the launch of two very interesting at-home pizza flavours.
The brand has launched a new line-up of pizza flavours, but there are two flavours that are causing so much controversy in the office that we had to share the news.
Leading the pack is the Chicken Gyros pizza, made with smoky-sweet Greek-inspired chicken, sun-dried tomatoes and a zingy garlic mint sauce that feels just like the gyros you'd pick up in Greece for only a few quid. A few people I've spoken to have clearly said that 'chicken doesn't belong on a pizza' - but I say rules are meant to be broken so I'm all for this one!
And the next flavour that has caused quite the stir is a Meatball Ragu pizza - loaded with tender beef and pork meatballs and a spicy pork crumb. This one sounds perfect for serious meat lovers.
There is also a Salami & 'Nduja pizza and a Halloumi & Hot Honey pizza which is very on trend with the food world right now.
The range originally launched in 2023 and has since undergone a relaunch with a new look and the use of higher quality ingredients. Franco Manca is all about serving a restaurant quality experience at home with slow-fermented sourdough pizzas made with the finest ingredients.
All the pizzas are made with 00 flour from 100% Italian-selected grains, making for the perfect combination of chewy and crunchy crusts. Now pass us the pizza cutter!
