๐จ๐ STOP THE MADNESS: A SERIOUS TALK ABOUT "SOGGY" PIZZA ๐๐จ (Please read this BEFORE you leave a bad review!)
⚠️ ATTENTION ALL MEMBERS ⚠️
I need to have a serious, heart-to-heart conversation with this group because I keep seeing 3-star reviews and comments that are breaking my Neapolitan heart into a million pieces. ๐๐ฎ๐น๐ญ
Let’s clear this up once and for all, right now. ๐
๐ซ THE MYTH: "The pizza in Naples was undercooked in the middle! It was wet! It was a disaster!" ✅ THE FACT: "The pizza in Naples was PERFECTLY cooked in the traditional Neapolitan style."
I repeat: It is NOT raw. It is NOT a mistake. It is NOT "soup." ๐ ♂️๐ฅฃ
If the center of your pizza is soft, wet, juicy, and almost impossible to pick up with your hands without folding it... CONGRATULATIONS! ๐๐ฅ You have just been served a masterpiece of culinary history.
๐ WHY IS IT "WET"? (The Science) ๐ You are used to "Dry Mozzarella" (processed cheese) that doesn't release water. Here, we use Fresh Fiordilatte or Buffalo Mozzarella. ๐๐ง When these fresh, high-quality ingredients hit the heat, they release their milk and juices. This mixes with the San Marzano tomato sauce and extra virgin olive oil to create a creamy, delicious center. It is NOT grease. It is FLAVOR. ๐คค๐
๐ฅ THE 90-SECOND RULE ๐ฅ Here is the hard truth many tourists don't want to hear: In Naples, we cook pizza in wood-fired ovens at 485°C (900°F) for only 60 to 90 seconds. ⏱️๐ The crust (Cornicione) puffs up instantly with air bubbles, blackened spots (leopard spots) appear, and the center stays soft. It is a masterpiece of chemistry and UNESCO heritage. ๐️๐
๐บ๐ธ CULTURE SHOCK: CRISPY VS. SOFT ๐ฌ๐ง If you are expecting a slice that stands up straight like a piece of cardboard, or a crunchy cracker... you are in the wrong city. ✈️๐ You are looking for New York style, or Roman style "Scrocchiarella." Naples is about the softness. It is about the digestibility. It is about the tradition. ❤️๐ฎ๐น
๐ PLEASE, I BEG YOU: ๐ STOP sending pizzas back to the oven asking for them to be "well done." You are insulting the Pizzaiolo and ruining the ingredients! ๐จ๐ณ๐ข ๐ STOP leaving bad reviews saying "the dough was wet." You are basically reviewing a Ferrari and complaining that it drives too fast! ๐️๐จ ๐ STOP asking for "Pepperoni" (that means bell peppers here!) when you want Salami! ๐ถ️๐ญ ๐ STOP looking for Chicken or Pineapple. Just don't do it. ๐๐ซ๐
๐ด HOW TO EAT IT LIKE A LOCAL (WITHOUT THE MESS) ๐ด 1️⃣ Use a Knife and Fork: Yes, it is allowed! In fact, most locals eat it this way at the table to collect all the sauce. ๐ฝ️ 2️⃣ The "Portafoglio" (Wallet) Fold: Fold it in four and eat it on the street like a true Neapolitan. ๐ฎ๐คค 3️⃣ The "Scarpetta": Use the crust to clean the plate. Don't leave any sauce behind!
๐ FROM A HOST'S PERSPECTIVE ๐ I host hundreds of guests in my apartments in the heart of the Historic Center (near Toledo Station) every year. ๐️๐️ I always tell them: "Leave your expectations at the airport. Forget what you know about pizza chains. Taste this with an open mind and close your eyes." ๐✨
Naples is not perfect, but our Pizza is. Don't try to change it. Learn to love it.
