Nonna boasta of signature handcrafted sourdough pizzas
Nonna's, India's first original sourdough pizzeria, presents its fourth outlet within the vibrant corridors of Jio World Plaza, BKC. With a commitment to delivering an unparalleled Italian dining experience all the way from the cobbled streets of Naples, Nonna's has already satiated Mumbaikar's palette at distinguished locations in Mumbai and Pune.
Sourdough is a traditional method of bread-making that relies on natural fermentation to leaven the dough. It is characterised by the use of a sourdough starter, a mixture of flour and water that captures wild yeast and lactic acid bacteria from the environment. This starter ferments over time, producing carbon dioxide gas, which creates the characteristic rise in the dough.
The process imparts a distinct tangy flavour to the bread, and the prolonged fermentation also enhances its texture and shelf life. Sourdough bread is often prized for its complex taste, chewy crust, and an open, holey crumb structure. Beyond its culinary appeal, sourdough is celebrated for its potential health benefits, including improved digestibility and nutrient absorption, owing to the prebiotics and probiotics generated during the fermentation process.
The interiors at Nonna's blend contemporary elegance with the timeless appeal of Italian design, creating an immersive experience for diners. Every corner screams a dining experience that feels like an extension of the cobbled streets of Naples.
