01L'Impasto

The 48‑hour dough

  1. 01 — Farina

    Four ingredients. That's it.

    Caputo Pizzeria 00, cold water, Trapani sea salt and two grams of fresh yeast per kilo. No sugar, no oil, no shortcuts — the rest of the recipe is time.

    4 ingredients
  2. 02 — Riposo

    Forty-eight hours, cold.

    The dough rests at 4°C for two full days. Slow fermentation turns starch into flavour and gives a crust so light you'll find room for a second.

    48h at 4°C
  3. 03 — Stesura

    Stretched by hand, never rolled.

    Our pizzaioli press from the centre outward, pushing air into the edge. That trapped air is what blooms into the cornicione in the fire.

  4. 04 — Condimento

    Dressed in forty seconds.

    Crushed San Marzano DOP, torn fior di latte, basil picked this morning and a thread of Sicilian olive oil. Then straight onto the peel.

02Il Forno

485°C. Ninety seconds. No shortcuts.

Our two domes were built brick by brick by a third-generation oven maker in Naples, then shipped to London in 1,400 numbered pieces. Fed with oak and beech from 7am, the deck holds 485°C — hot enough to blister the cornicione into leopard spots before the centre can dry out.

03Il Morso

Out of the fire. Straight to you.

A soft, molten centre. A crust that tears like warm bread. Fior di latte that refuses to let go. A Neapolitan pizza is at its best in the first three minutes — so we'll have it in your hands in under ten.

05Le Origini

From Campania, with love.

We import four ingredients directly from producers we've visited ourselves. Everything else is British, seasonal and from within eighty miles of the oven.

Valle del Sarno, Campania

San Marzano DOP

Grown in volcanic soil in the shadow of Vesuvius and hand-picked in August. Sweet, low in seeds and acidity — we crush them by hand and add nothing but salt.

1,920 km to the oven

Agerola, Monti Lattari

Fior di latte

Cow's-milk mozzarella from a family caseificio in the hills above the Amalfi coast. Flown in twice a week, torn by hand, never sliced.

1,960 km to the oven
00

Naples, milled since 1924

Caputo Pizzeria 00

Soft wheat ground slowly, so the starch stays intact. Strong enough for a 48-hour ferment, fine enough to bake through in ninety seconds.

1,940 km to the oven

Valle del Belice, Sicily

Nocellara olive oil

Cold-pressed within hours of harvest. Grassy, peppery and poured raw over every pizza the second it leaves the fire.

“The closest I've come to Via dei Tribunali without a boarding pass. The cornicione actually tears.”

Giulia Russo — born in Naples, now in Hackney

“’Nduja & honey should be illegal. Sweet, hot, smoky — gone in four minutes.”

Marcus Bell — food writer

“Came for a quick lunch, stayed for three Margheritas. The dough is so light you just keep going.”

Priya Nair — Shoreditch regular

“Watching them work that oven is half the show. Ninety seconds, every time, and the char is perfect.”

Daniel Okafor — Borough Market trader

“Finally, a Marinara done right. My nonna approved — and she approves of nothing.”

Luca Ferraro — Islington
