Hello dear fellows pizza lovers, i've been one of you since the first vesuvio's eruption.
Today I want to talk to you guys about the difference between mozzarella we use here in italy and mozzarella used worldwide, and the importance of putting GOOD mozzarella on every pizza.
Mozzarella cheese: The Plague
I could Not even explain what is this to my mom. For real.
Mozzarella should be a fresh cheese, and by this, here in italy, we mean it must contain 60% of water and must be consumed in 30 days.
This does not look fresh to me, to my mother, to my father and to gino, the owner of "Pizzeria Da Gino"
Mozzarella Fiordilatte: The Cure
You can see a whole country tradition in just one picture here: Mozzarella fiordilatte nodino (little knot). takes his name from his shape.
This is what mozzarella should look like, fresh, juicy and white, and I personally refuse to eat anything that has not this kind of mozzarella on it.
this is the standard shape. I don't know if you can see the difference between mozzarella fiordilatte and mozzarella cheese, but I assure you I can feel it.
Pizza Margherita: The Queen
In 1886 the Queen decided to visit naples, and Salvatore Esposito created Pizza Margherita to honour her, wich became the Queen favourite plate.
When we talk about Pizza, we talk about Royal food, that's why pizza is so good 🍕.
Margherita: Why is it so good?
Simplicity is the key.
It only has 4 ingredients:
1. Cherry Tomatoes Sauce
2. Mozzarella Fiordilatte
3. Extra Virgin Olive oil
4. Basil
That have to be good. Anytime one of these ingredients is not good you are wasting a chance to eat a very nice Pizza.
I know pizza must be good even with mozzarella cheese, but I am talking about traditions and culture and one thing is pineapple on pizza, one thing is a different ingredient from the recipe as it is intended to be.
Let me Know what you guys think about that: I know it is easy to speak about Pizza from italy, this is why I want to hear it from people Worldwide.
Forgive my bad english, this is very Pizza english.
We all deserve to eat good pizzas.
