Napoli Pizza Masters Share Secrets of Great Pizza

Image
During the Pizza Expo, I was able to sample some great pizza. I ate a lot of pizza. A lot of pizza. Yes, I was in Pizza Heaven. I spoke about pizza whenever I could. And I had access to some of the best pizza makers on the planet! Two of the Master Pizzaioli (Pizza Makers) I spoke with were: Antonio Stariata and Adolpho . Antonio Stariata is one of the most incredible pizza makers in the world. His advice was simple and to the point. If you want to make great pizza, you need to follow the Neapolitan method. You will only use 4 (four)ingredients : flour, yeast, salt and water. That's it...nothing more. He also adds: use no fat in your dough. (By this he means, oil...) Adolpho , echos Antonio, and adds his best tip is to make sure you have a long enough ferment. You want to let your pizza leaven for at least 8 or 9 hours. I have been following this advice. My pizza has been coming out great! pizza on earth, Albert Grande The Pizza Promoter Antonio and Adol...

Ms. Pizza shares the following: This list is still a Work in Progress (but, any pizza list is a work in progress, right?) I noticed that you have some reviews for Upper Crust and Ernesto’s, but Bostone, Marhino’s and Angelina’s are NOT on your list of Best Pizza in Massachusetts (State Motto: "By the sword we seek pizza, but pizza only under liberty".) -Ms. Pizza Upper Crust – Boston, MA Upper Crust Pizza , which is a local and growing chain of about 20 pizza shops, serves up gourmet thin crust pizza in Boston and in surrounding neighborhoods. Diners can expect a consistent pizza from one shop to the next. The pizzas are thin, and the toppings are all fresh. I enjoy this chain because it is NOT AT ALL a greasy bite, and has the right balance of cheese and sauce. Oftentimes I find that pizza joints load the pizza with cheese, which overpowers the crust, sauce, and other toppings. Upper Crust is careful to cover each pizza perfectly and should ABSOLUTELY be checked out i...
