Best Pizza thread!

she doesn't have that much - a bite from each and she spit out the tuna one. so seven bites in total

he however is nutsier - though he didn't seem to get much past a bite on the savory ones. so 4 small slices and 4 bites - about the equivalent of 2 loaded new york slices or one big chicago-style slice

Happy National Pizza Day everyone!

For those us into a bohemian lifestyle, the best pizza is a Good King Wenceslas:

Tomato base, olives, capsicum, pancetta, prosciutto, julienned snowpeas, vintage cheese, mushroom, spanish onion, english spinach, whatever's available, hold the anchovy.

Deep pan , crisp and even.

I might make one on March 14.

There's A Roman Pizza Legend In SoHo, And He's Making Pies With Ice

Do you guys have an opinion on square cut (aka tavern cut) versus pie slices (triangle cut)?

I do love and appreciate a good Sicilian slice or Grandma slice of pizza (they're designed as rectangular slices for whatever reason).

I think the pizza at Pizza by the Inch is closer to the tavern cut style of slice (the whole pie being oblong). It's good but I tend to crave regular pie slices when dreaming about pizza.

Here's a selection of slices from Pizza by the Pound (similar concept as Pizza by the Inch):

Not quite the same thing as tavern cut pizza.

There was a recent argument on my facebook about square vs triangle slices. It went on for something like 60 comments.

I came down on:

1) there is no bad pizza
2) squares vs triangles do not change how the pizza tastes
3) people who have time to argue about this also have time to just go get a square or slice of pizza and that's a much better use of time

I will not turn down tavern sliced pizza (especially if its free or bought by other people for sharing). I, however, will not likely find very much of it in my pursuit for pizza here in NYC ... so I will likely never buy it myself (statistically speaking).

I agree with this.. Unless it's a double pepperoni with extra cheese and garlic. Then I become confused on which to devour first. It's easy! First slice, eat the crust (becoming familiar with the flavor to determine if it requires more garlic) then the slice. Second slice, start with the main, then the crust.

Continue in this manner until either full or out of pizza.

Next up - is pie crust better than the pie? Usually, for me, yes!

I used to babysit for a family where they always ordered a couple of bacon, triple cheese, garlic pizzas just before I arrived. those were hard to eat - there was really much cheese. I used to cut the points off, eat the crust, then put the points on top of the least goopy part of the slice and have a folded sandwich. tasty but so so messy.


pie crust vs pie? tough one. if my mother made it, you'd discard the crust, she couldn't do pie crust or muffins - always overmixed them. graham cracker crusts became my favourite - and I do prefer those to almost any pie filling/topping.
