Goodbye pizza – hello pinsa! The Italian restaurant in Karlsruhe city center

If you like pizza, you'll love pinsa – are you fans of Italian cuisine? Then you absolutely must stop by Pinsa Si on Karlstraße in Karlsruhe. 

Already known in ancient Rome, the "Pinsa Romana" is now enchanting the modern world with its light and fluffy dough. Unlike pizza, which uses only one type of flour, the dough for pinsa contains wheat, rice, and soy flour. The pinsa dough must then rise for a full 72 hours with the help of natural yeast before the flatbreads can be topped. "Both the ingredients and the rising time make the pizza much more digestible than a normal pizza," explains Pinseria owner Angela Palermo.
