FRESH NOODS VERSUS
DRY NOODS
FRESH PASTA IS ALWAYS COOKED TO ORDER AND ORDINARILY ONLY AVAILABLE AT BOUGIE SPOTS CHARGING HIGHER PRICES.
FRESH PASTA HAS A HIGHER STARCH CONTENT TO CREATE A VELVETY TEXTURE THAT DRY NOODS LACK.
WE USE A SOUTHERN-ITALIAN RECIPE (SEMOLINA, SALT, & WATER) THAT GETS HAND-CUT FROM BRONZE DIES, PRODUCING SMALL RIDGES AND A ROUGH TEXTURE THAT CREATES INCREDIBLE SAUCE ADHESION.
BY CONTRAST, DRY NOODS ARE PAR-BOILED AND THEN FRIDGE KEPT. WHEN YOU ORDER, THEY THEN GET A QUICK DIP IN HOT WATER TO REHEAT. SAUCE KIND OF FALLS OFF IT, EVEN THICK SAUCES LIKE ALFREDO.
SLOW-FERMENT, DECK OVEN PIZZA
MADE WITH AMERICAN SPRING WHEAT MILLED FROM THE CENTER OF THE KERNAL, RESULTING IN A HIGH PROTEIN, HIGH GLUTEN-FORMING FLOUR. OUR SPECIALTY MALTED PATENT FLOUR IS THE KEY TO CREATING A CRUST WITH THE PERFECT CHEW.
SLOW-FERMENTED FOR 36 HOURS BEFORE BEING HAND-TOSSED, AND TOPPED WITH OUR HOUSE SAUCE, WHOLE MILK MOZZARELLA, AND PREMIUM TOPPINGS. COOKED IN A BLODGETT DECK OVEN AT 650F, IT GETS A SLIGHT CHAR AND HAS THE PERFECT CHEW.
CONVEYOR OVENS ARE THE NORM IN MANY PLACES, ESPECIALLY CHAINS, BECAUSE LESS SKILL IS NEEDED AND THERE'S GREATER OUTPUT. THE RESULT THOUGH IS SOFT CRUSTS AND LESS ARTISAN PIZZAS.
