How Is The Perfect Cornicione Made For Neapolitan Pizza? - Story Of Italy

How Is The Perfect Cornicione Made For Neapolitan Pizza? Have you ever wondered how a perfect Neapolitan pizza crust is made? In this detailed video, we’ll reveal the secrets behind creating the iconic cornicione, or raised edge, that makes this pizza so special. We’ll start by explaining the importance of selecting the right ingredients, such as high-quality Tipo zero flour, and how proper dough preparation is essential for achieving the ideal elasticity and strength. You’ll learn about the fermentation process, which develops tiny air bubbles that contribute to the puffiness of the crust.

We’ll also show you the traditional hand-shaping techniques used by skilled pizzaiolos to preserve these air pockets, avoiding rolling pins to keep the rim light and airy. The video covers the critical baking process, including the use of a wood-fired oven at extremely high temperatures, which quickly cooks the pizza in just over a minute. This rapid baking creates the signature charring and puffiness, resulting in a crust that is crispy on the outside and soft inside.
