Fugazzeta
Also known as: Fugazza rellena
Buenos Aires-style thick pizza stuffed with provolone and mozzarella, topped with onion, Parmesan and oregano.
About Fugazzeta
Fugazzeta is a Buenos Aires pizza formed from two thick dough layers with cheese sealed between them and onion on top. This profile follows King Arthur Baking's provolone-and-mozzarella version rather than the related unstuffed fugazza or fugazza con queso.
Provolone and mozzarella create a deeply milky, savoury filling, while Parmesan sharpens the onion topping. Oregano and red pepper flakes add herbal warmth and gentle heat against the olive-oil-enriched, lightly sweet dough.
The baked pizza is tall and golden, with softened onion spread across the top and a substantial molten-cheese centre between two airy crusts. The edges are crisp and browned while the interior remains soft, stretchy and rich.
