Today’s recipe by Alessandroscuderi’s is a giant New York style pizza, with America’s favourite topping: pepperoni.
Achieving the right consistency and uniformity of baking becomes very easy thanks to serieS oven performance.
In this recipe, Alessandro also uses the pizza loader to make his job easy.
