Description
??? What’s the secret behind a perfectly charred Neapolitan pizza? Answer: the cornicione—that famed leopard-spotting that blisters around the edges. But is this a sign of superior pie, or just burnt dough? Whether you like a soft crust with a chew, or a nice crisp bite, it’s merely a matter of the dough’s four main ingredients: flour, water, salt, yeast . . . or is it something else? We’ll find out more about the foundations of a perfect pizza — from Italy’s prized 00 flour, to farms that grow ancient wheats specifically for pizza. But is flour as different as the homophones: palate and palette? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
