Roman-style pizza is probably my favorite non-thin style pizza, and the secret to this truly awesome slice is a long, slow, cold fermentation, which produces a crispy-on-the-outside, perfectly light, and airy, “open-crumb” crust. You can’t go wrong with sausage, sweet peppers, onions, and three cheeses, but this will shine no matter what you top it with. Enjoy!

Blessed Are the Pizza Makers🍕🍕🍕🍕🍕🍕🍕🍕🍕🍕🍕
Bravo, Chef! Complimenti dall'Italia.
We've got Marion Cobretti over here with those scissors
I like you John. But I think it's imperative to call a disaster a disaster. We both know that you know pizza. I'm sorry to see you having to do this
Three day process? 😂
Oh, i get it, it's a pizza that you should have started doing it, when the roman empire was on😅
why not just use the same bowl for the cold proof after doing the 3 folds?
It's like taking care of newborn
Did the populace munch of slices of this whilst watching the gladiators in the Colosseum? Of course not, haaaaaa! xD
You are the nubile ragazza of your Roman-style pizza.
What a pretty pizza. Looking outstanding
breaks my heart to see you using kitchen shears to cut the pizza.
C’mon!! I give my dough 15 minutes, max, and the kids love the pizza. I don’t have the patience to do this.
Made this yesterday – unbelievably delicious. I’m going to make this for a pizza night with some friends. Also used part of the dough to make focaccia and it was the best ever. I am going to keep this dough in the fridge on an ongoing basis.
this pizza has twice the calories of a normal pizza in olive oil alone.
I made this, following the dough recipe & method exactly, but totally changing the topping. In place of tomato sauce I used a ton of well caramelized minced onion, then just sprinkled over some shredded smoked gouda, and dried oregano. The sweet onions were amazing atop the delicious chewy-crisp base. Would make again! It's like that awful school cafeteria sheet tray pizza, except good.
Sorry…a two day pizza cook is simply rediculous 😂😂😂
This came out delicious. Although, one corner pulled toward the middle while cooking. But that is due to my pan lifting when hot. Also, keep an eye on it. I did not need as much time cooking. First cook done at ten minutes. Great recipe.
STOP talking like that….
You gotta scissor it😮
Just started a batch of dough. I am looking forward to Wednesday night's dinner!
Ok, I had never heard of Roman pizza, but now I have to try this next time I make pizza! I usually go for a Neapolitan style, but this looks so focaccia-like and delicious from that long rise 🤤
