Main Characteristics of Roman Pizza

Main characteristics of Roman pizza

The Roman style of pizza is a thin and crispy version of pizza that originates from Rome. Unlike Neapolitan pizza, which has a soft, airy dough with thicker edges, Roman pizza is more evenly rolled out and baked to be crispy, especially on the bottom.

Dough – Thinner, crispier, and less elastic than Neapolitan pizza. It often contains less water and ferments for a longer time (sometimes up to 48 hours) to achieve a light but crispy texture.

Shape – It can be round (Pizza Tonda Romana) or rectangular (Pizza al Taglio – a version that is baked in large trays and sold by the slice).

Baking – It is baked at higher temperatures (300–350 °C), but not as extreme as Neapolitan pizza (which reaches up to 500 °C). This allows for even baking and crispiness.

Ingredients – Classic toppings are simple, such as tomato, mozzarella, cooked ham, mushrooms, and artichokes, but they are often more creative and diverse.

Texture – The outside is crispy, while the inside is still slightly soft, but less chewy than Neapolitan pizza.

Roman pizza is an excellent choice for those who like crispy dough and a variety of toppings!

Diverse selection of pizzas

We offer a diverse range of pizzas from classic, vegetarian, seafood, and sweet pizzas. All dough (classic, whole wheat, and black) is prepared from organic flour.
