Italian immigrants brought pizza-making traditions to Brazil in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Over time, Brazilian palates and locally available ingredients influenced the evolution of pizza, leading to unique toppings and flavor combinations like calabresa sausage.

Pizza de Calabresa offers a savory and slightly spicy flavor profile, dominated by the distinct taste of calabresa sausage and the sharpness of onions, complemented by the creamy cheese and tangy tomato sauce.
The primary flavor component is the calabresa sausage, a cured and smoked pork sausage seasoned with paprika and other spices, giving it a characteristic reddish color and slightly spicy kick. Sliced onions provide a sharp, pungent counterpoint to the richness of the sausage. The base of tomato sauce contributes a tangy sweetness, while the melted mozzarella cheese adds a creamy, mild flavor that binds all the ingredients together.

Calabresa Quality
The quality of the calabresa sausage is crucial. Opt for a reputable brand with a good balance of spice and smokiness.
Onion Preparation
Thinly slicing the onions ensures they cook evenly and meld well with the other flavors. Consider briefly sautéing them before adding to the pizza to mellow their sharpness.
Cheese Choice
While mozzarella is traditional, experiment with other cheeses like provolone or queijo catupiry for a unique twist.
Spice Level
If you prefer a spicier pizza, add a pinch of chili flakes or a drizzle of chili oil before baking.
