Sausage, goats cheese and spinach pizza with bechamel sauce

Stormbringer

Cooked in the large tonight we were out of a tomato based base sauce so SWMBO suggested bechamel sauce … winner! Will be doing this again.

Gotta admit that you always surface in fine style.  Great looking pie.  I'm sure the wine pairing was up to the challenge.

Cheers cap, we had this with a 2007 Langoa Barton, it was lovely.

Sounds like a good reason to get an Ooni Volt.

Have never had Bechamel on pizza, sounds tasty and looks just smashing.

I was surprised at how well it worked tbh, I think it's because it paired nicely with the goats cheese and spinach.

Love that as a combo

Cooked another one tonight, the Bechamel sauce base is a winner with goats cheese

Always a banquet when you post. That is a great pie.

I love your crusts man.  You’ve really got these dialed in.

Thanks folks. It's been a long time since I cooked pizza in the Egg, going to do more soon.

Fantastic looking crust on those pies dude, the cornichione looks outstanding. I will definitely try this combo next time I fire up the WFO. 

Italian sausage?

You had me at the original, but take two sweetened the pot.

@CTMike these were Moroccan lamb sausages, they work really well with spinach and goats cheese. The goats cheese needs to be crumbly rather than creamy though,

Those are fine looking pizzas! No problem at all with “white” pizzas, though I must admit that the use of  bechamel is quite unusual
