I do believe it was my gorgeous bloggy friend Lisa from The Raw Serenity who first told me about socca pizza crust when she commented on my Blue Moon Mexican Pizza many blue moons ago.

I was so excited to read about it on Wiki, who knows why it took me so long to try it, but let’s just rejoice in the fact that it’s finally in my life, WHOOHOO!

This is no heavy, gluten-free pizza base, baby!  An absolute cinch to make, and melt-in-your-mouth amazing, I haven’t bought a pizza base since.

I’m so inspired to try it in so many ways in the future (crêpes? crackers?) but for now I just can’t stop making pizza!

Viva la socca pizza!  xx
