While red sauce pies are the norm when it comes to pizza, do NOT discount pizza's other popular sibling: white pizza. If you've never heard of white pizza before, you're in for a treat! Also known as "white pie," white pizza toppings are basically types of Italian-style pizza that do not use any tomato sauce at all. So, if you're opposed to tomatoes, or simply sick of them, then switching up your go-to pizza recipes with any of these 30 white pizza recipes every now and then will be the right move!
Unlike regular pizza that's usually slathered with tomato sauce and ends up with a red base, white pizza is usually covered with cheese or a creamy sauce.
Is White Pizza Sauce the Same as Alfredo?
While both white pizza sauce and alfredo sauce look uncannily similar, there are a few differences. Alfredo tends to be a heavier sauce made with heavy cream, butter and some type of cheese (oftentimes Parmesan), while white pizza sauce is usually just made with butter, flour, milk and sometimes cheese.
Since the white pizza base is pretty basic, almost anything can go on it, but the most popular topping options tend to be veggies (such as spinach, artichokes and mushrooms). Don't be afraid to add in seafood such as shrimp if you prefer, or even prosciutto and bacon if you're a serious meat lover. White clam pies are also another way to go if clams are your jam.
