  Story
 


Everytime I see this pizza in a shop, it calls to me: the fresh, sweet mozzarella; the red, juicy pomodori; the king of spices, basilico; and of course the salty, oily broth that sits in puddles on top of the pizza, hidden amongst the other ingredients. So it is logical that, as soon as I had a kitchen available, this is what I made. I recommend this recipe because it includes all of my favorite things, and the proportions are just so that it fills one up immediately. A very satisfying remedy to the Roman heat. Goes especially well with a local chainti!
