Gouda cheese used in cheese curry pizza
Instead of using traditional mozzarella, the chain opted for Gouda cheese, known for its sharper taste and stronger aroma. The choice gives the pizza a deeper, richer and more savoury flavour compared to standard cheese-loaded pizzas.
Curry pizza is already popular in Japan, while curry bread remains a staple in bakeries across the country. Cheese curry is also a familiar comfort-food combination in Japanese cuisine. Building on these well-loved flavours, Pizza Hut Japan combined the concepts into a new creation designed around an extra-stretchy cheese experience.

The Nomeru Pizza Cheese Curry is currently available at participating Pizza Hut Japan outlets and will remain on the menu until June 15.
