How to Pizza: the best pizza in Naples with Pignataro and Salvo - pt. 2

Welcome to “On The Road Edition” hosted by Stevie Kim. Today we are back in Naples, where the conversation continues with Salvatore Salvo, owner of Ristorante Salvo, and Luciano Pignataro, in front of a Pizza Cosacca - one of their most famous pizzas - which is definitely worth the trip! The Salvos have the quintessential pizzeria on the Riviera di Chiaia; trained by their father Giuseppe, guests can expect soft dough and great toppings, as well as much more cheese compared to the average pizza found in Italy. Built on values such as passion and technique, their crust is dotted with tiny charcoal bubbles that enhance the best ingredients; one of Salvo's most popular pizzas is their Margherita made with canned Piennolo tomatoes, whose vibrant acidity is balanced by abundant Fior di Latte, while the "Pizza 'Nduja e Verzin" balances its acidity with spicy Calabrian sausage and blue cheese.

For the Salvos, Neapolitan pizza is a culture to protect and develop using all the tools, techniques, and knowledge that the world of contemporary gastronomy can offer. Salvatore Salvo and his brother Francesco have been passionately dedicating themselves to their work for years to carry on a tradition that has been passed down for three generations. As a result, the Neapolitan pizza Salvo is modern, adapted to the advances of new discoveries in the kitchen, created following seasonality and using fresh ingredients at hand, enriched with pairings of refined and carefully studied ingredients: this is Neapolitan pizza today.

On The Road Edition hosted by Stevie is a series that is part of the Mamma Jumbo Shrimp brand, available both on YouTube and the Italian Wine Podcast. Apart from these, the Mamma Jumbo Shrimp family also offers a series of books, a wine school, and much more - the truth is, we love Italian wine but won't turn our nose up at other wines!
