Traditional NY pizza has come to Staten Island, courtesy of
Salvatore of Soho. Master pizza maker Salvatore Ganci perfected
his skills in the art of pizza making during his years at the legendary
Lombardi's, entering the ranks of the most renowned coal
fired pizza chefs in the world.
Salvatore of Soho has installed a custom built brick coal fired oven
which reaches the extremely high temperatures crucial to achieving
the perfect crust. When this oven is used effectively by pizza
artisans like Salvatore Ganci, the pizza cooks quickly until the
crust achieves the proper degree of smoked crispness that pizza
lovers have come to expect.
At Salvatore of Soho we make our mozzarella fresh daily with curd
we buy from local dairy farms. And many of the herbs and spices
used in our recipes are grown on our organic farm in Upstate New
York. We use only San Marzano tomatoes and first cold pressed
olive oil as well.
Our pizza is created with Imported Italian tomatoes, homemade mozzarella,
extra virgin olive oil, freshly grated parmigiano and topped with fresh basil.
Then it is flash-baked in a very high temperature coal-fired oven.
