Like

Pizza
But
Not
Really
A thin crust is called a Neopolitan Pizza.
A thick crust usually cooked in a deep dish type pan is called Sicilian Pizza.
They are both GREAT!
You're kidding right?
Yes! In the Pizza Aficionado Handbook, I cover effective ways to make pizza, without a wood burning pizza oven.
If it's good pizza, go ahead. No arrests will be made!
Bahahahaha, that is the oldest joke in the book for pizzerias around the country telling that to patrons. Do you have any idea what it would cost to ship the water? A slice of pizza would cost $100
The TRAPANI code or... The official code of pizza ethics written and enforced by The Recipe And Pizza Association National Institute states the following prohibited items and practices:
No Pineapple on Pizza.
No dipping Pizza in Ranch Dressing.
No BBQ Sauce on Pizza.
No Chicken on Pizza.
No frozen Pizza (unless the consumer is under 5 years of age).
No eating of Pizza with a fork and knife unless in Italy.
No Fruit on Pizza (you want dessert? get a Cannolo or Gelato).
No Microwave for Reheating
No Gluten Free crust!
NEVER use SKIM CHEESE
Suggestions:
Dean Martin and/or Frank Sinatra should be playing while the Pizza is being made.
The kitchen should be renamed to the "Pizza Shrine".
Pizza should be served and eaten with reverence as each slice is like a work of art.
There should be an official Saint of Pizza (proceedings are underway with the Vatican to establish Saint Margarita as the Patron Saint of Pizza).
Chicago Style pizza should be renamed as "Casserole"
Eating cold Pizza is Ok, especially the next morning after a celebration.
Always use REAL ingredients.
Musts:
Make with love!
Eat often with friends and family.
