Joe’s New York Pizza is one of the few pizzerias to be a 3x International Award Winning Pizzeria. Our award winning White Truffle Mushroom Pizza is made with white truffle, mushrooms, bacon, sundried tomato & fresh basil.
What Are White Truffle Mushrooms?
White Truffles are mushrooms that are difficult to grow and find. Truffles are normally unearthed by dogs and other animals with a good sense of smell. Some White Truffles have fetched upwards of $100,000 per pound!
White Truffles are described as a flavorful, earthy, and delicious mushrooms. They have a distinctive taste that has become well known by foodies around the world. Truffles are often considered luxurious and pair nicely with heavier foods such as cheese and bacon. They are typically used in Italian cooking where they are shaved over pizza, pasta, and other traditional dishes. Recently, there has been a “truffle trend” making the flavor more widespread in foods such as Truffle Fries which use truffle oil, a blend of olive oil and truffle extract. However, we still feel the best way to enjoy truffles is on a pizza.
What Makes Our Pizza Special
We only use the finest of ingredients in our food because we know you want a top quality traditional pizza. We think about the way ingredients will pair together in all of our pizzas. In our award winning White Truffle Mushroom pizza we know the truffles will pair beautifully with the rich bacon, mushrooms, and cheese, contrasting with the fresh basil and tangy sundried tomatoes. Every bite is an explosion of flavor that will leave your taste buds satisfied.
What Is New York Style?
New York Style pizza has a thinner hand tossed crust that is soft on the inside but crispy along the edges. The pizza itself and the slices are large, perfect for folding in half to eat! When it comes to pizza, we think bigger is better. Dig into a slice of New York pie.
