About this Recipe

This is our take on the classic Roman style of pizza: Pizza al Taglio, which simply translates to pizza that’s been baked in a square or rectangular tray. This style of pizza is popular in Rome and known for its thicker, almost focaccia-like crust. Shops that make pizza like this display it behind a glass counter and when you order it, you point to the style of pizza you want and gesture with your hands roughly what size you want, and the shop will cut it into a square with scissors.
