The Original Pinsa.

Crafted in Rome. Trusted by chefs. Loved at home.

What is Pinsa?

After years of experimenting with doughs, Corrado Di Marco invented in 2001 the perfect product to meet modern demand for a lighter, healthier alternative to traditional baked goods: Pinsa Romana. Crafted from a unique blend of wheat, rice, and soy flours with sourdough, the dough features high hydration and a long fermentation process, resulting in a light, digestible crust that is low in fat and sugar. Still hand-stretched in Rome to ensure authenticity and an unforgettable crispy texture, Di Marco Pinsa is now enjoyed worldwide.

How to prepare Pinsa

DiMarco’s Pinsa is a versatile addition to any menu – perfect for serving as an appetizer, entrée, or dessert.

Fast, consistent, and easy to prepare, it is the ideal solution for home meals and a perfect offering for restaurants, pubs, street food vendors, catering, events, and more.

Ready to be served in a few minutes, simply follow the cooking steps below:

  • Remove the Pinsa from the freezer and let it rest at room temperature for 5-8 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 480°F-500°F (250°C)
  • Bake the crust for 5-6 minutes. In professional ovens, temperatures can reach 570°F-610°F (300°C320°C), reducing baking time to just 3-4 minutes.

Some recipes may require toppings to be baked together with the crust––check out the recipe section for more details.

Once the Pinsa is ready, remove it from the oven and add your desired toppings.

Cooking times may vary slightly depending on the toppings.
