Last week's TEAM SPT adventure trip to New Jersey was incredible! Our first stop was @breadandsaltbakery in Jersey City, where we tried two Roman pies. These are the thin crispy pizzas you would get in a bakery. First the Rossa, with only tomato + olive oil + oregano. Then we had the Cheese pizza, with tomato + mozzarella + olive oil + salt. The best part of these visits is getting the owner's perspective on why they use their methods and ingredients. We asked owner Rick Easton about the Cheese pizza's use of salt after the bake. It's intense at first, but becomes an addictive element after a couple bites. My buddy @famousfatdave said it was like eating popcorn! Rick uses unsalted mozzarella from @caputobrotherscreamery which is why he adds salt after the bake. He explained to us the difference between the various processes for curdling milk and how they impact the final cheese product. Since Caputo Brothers uses a bacterial culture instead of acidification to curdle, Rick prefers their mozzarella. This pizza is so excellent and I wish we had more time to stay and taste Rick's entire menu but we had four other places to hit. More on then later. #jerserycity #breadandsalt #romanpizza #pizzacrawl #njeats #njpizza
