I'll take the sandwich. The focaccia is definitely on point.
“Pizza bianca” (Italian translation: white pizza), I can safely assume is the O.G. white pizza. The term comes up quite a bit when you’re booping around the internet, but it’s nothing like what I know as the paler pie. Turns out, Roman pizza bianca is something akin to focaccia.
According to Ed Levine, pizza bianca is an experience. He got intimate with the toast with the most on a trip to Rome (read: he knows what he’s talking about). He claims it’s the acme bread for sandwiches—oily, crispy, chewy and tender—there’s no cheese and no sauce.
Apparently, that’s just the type he likes. You can get all sorts of toppings—the Italian term just means there’s no sauce on the pie. Americans kind of ran with the idea and made it their own, to a degree.
