13" Neapolitan Pizzas
Elli's pizzas begin with the pure simplicity of a crust made from super-fine Caputo 00 flour imported from Naples, which is blended with water, salt, and yeast—and nothing else. No oil, no sugar. Oh sure, it sounds easy except, these classic ingredients only yield their signature texture and flavor when fired in the ultra-hot, subtly smoky environment found in a wood-fired, brick oven, like the one here at Elli's.
