To make pizzas as authentic and delicious as any pizzeria in Italy, our starting point has always been the base. From a 'mother dough' starter, we create sourdough pizza bases in the traditional Neapolitan style. After slow-proving for 24 hours, we fire then in a wood oven before we add our toppings by hand. We use a combination of three different cured meats on this pizza. Ventricina salami gives a delicately smoky flavour, while the Calabrese salami brings some heat. Over this, we hand-crumble spicy Pepperoni that turns crispy once baked. With the creamy fior di latte mozzarella and a sprinkling of chilli flakes, this is how the Italians do a meat feast. In Italy, few things matter more than good food. It's a deep-rooted belief in the power of food to bring people together, a belief we share at Crosta & Mollica.
