  • Though it hasn't been around for as long as New York's O.G. pizzerias, Prince Street Pizza has quickly made its mark by serving one of the city's-if not the world's-great square slices. In this episode of Food Skills, Prince Street's Dominic Morano breaks down the elements of this iconic Sicilian slice, including the puckered cups of natural-casing pepperoni that make it one of New York's most recognizable Instagram stars.

      @Fatblue246 2 роки тому

      a portion of it probably is actually oil as well. you do oil pizzas before cooking them, so he isn’t entirely wrong. His point was it’s not a grease fest like reviews say it is, “greasy pizza” in NY insinuates low quality, like we call dominos pizza greasy here. prolly why he got all right about it

      I can assure you, it’s the best pizza slice I’ve ever had. So much flavour in the sauce, light, fluffy but crispy base. The fucking pepperoni is MENTAL, way better than sex. Just an amazing experience. It’s worth going to Scarrs as well for a normal triangle slice.. my personal favourite.

      Nope, Olive oil is high in monounsaturated fats. It helps lower cholesterol and its actually very good for you. Although it still has high caloric value, what the owner said is true. Its not the fat you're thinking of.

    I'm not a pizza snob like a lot of the northeast. I love thin crust new York style, I love deep dish Chicago style, I love Sicilian. it's all good in its own way and I love all of them for different reasons. I live in connecticut and it's almost blasphemus to speak Ill of Frank pepes or like something else as much and I hate that attitude because just like people food is all great in its own way. live, love, eat and enjoy life because you'll be dead before you know it and if you close yourself off to things you'll miss out on the best parts of life.

    I have this one recurring dream, where I'm living above this specialty food place that serves Sicilian pizza. It's the perfect world for someone, like me, who doesn't like to move from the computer chair. And. Yet. If I can walk down the block, and then catch an 'overpass' back to where my rental room/pizza place is, so like 10 meters above where I sleep, I'm in Amsterdam. It's one of the all time great dream worlds. You can never be TOO close to a Sicilian pizza place, like this one.

      @Fatblue246 2 роки тому

      Spumoni gardens is one of the best scicillian in the city hands down. The focus of the two scicillian slices are different to be fair, this one focuses way more on the pepperoni whereas Spumoni is more about that upside down action.
