“PIZZA IN PALA” FEATURES
Distinctive characteristics of the pizza in pala, are the crunchiness, the lightness (given by the alveolus)and proportions of water and flour, very different from those necessary for the preparation of a classic round pizza.
The dough of the pizza in pala needs a much higher percentage of hydration and after a long leavening must be stretched out pressing it in the right places, so as to allow the pizza to develop and inflate properly in the oven.
The pizza in pala also cooks at temperatures much lower than those required for the Neapolitan pizza, and for a much longer time.
The differences are, of course, not only in the preparation, but also in the look: the size and the elongated shape are the distinctive features of the pizza in pala, even if there are no specific indications on the size and shape to be obtained.
