The recipe proposed by the Michelin-starred chef from Matera is the story of a friendship that has long linked him to Davide Scabin. Pizza in black, is a pizza with a black dough due to the use of vegetable charcoal, which wants to be a tribute to the famous dish Black is Black – spaghetti with squid ink with ink carbonara and caviar – by the Turin chef of Combal.zero . Scabin's irreverent black is reinterpreted by enhancing local products, consequently creating a fried pizza with vegetable charcoal, served on slightly chopped ricotta, fresh truffle, port truffle sauce and topping with truffle caviar querelle, obtained by spherifying the juice truffle itself.
