Ingredient info:
Pine nuts are harvested from the cones of several varieties of pine trees. These small, white, elongated kernel-shaped nuts are also called piñon or pignoli. Because of their high fat content, pine nuts must be stored in the refrigerator or freezer.

Traditionally used for tomato paste and sauce, Italian plum tomatoes have more flesh and less juice than other tomatoes. They also have a deeper tomato flavor. We used Italian plum tomatoes on this pizza to keep the crust crisp.
