Leo Spizzirri and Brian Hernandez Talk Pizza

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Brian Hernandez sits down with Leo Spizzirri in the Chef’s Corner and gets a rundown on what it takes to be a successful chef, pizza maker and consultant in the industry.

In this seminar Chef, Leo explains how he grew up in Chicago on Harlem Avenue. He explains that across the street from where he grew up was a neighborhood pizzeria. The summer breezes would waft toward his house bringing along the incredible smells of pizza. This was his number one memory and such an incredible experience.

Chef Leo started his pizza journey with a lot of dishwashing and floor mopping in the early days. He relates that many of his friends in the pizza industry started out the same way. you need to pay your dues if you want to make pizza. Or as the great David Bromberg relates: “You got to suffer if you want to sing the blues”. The same can be said about pizza. You need to pay your dues a bit to master the art of pizza.

One of the shockers of this interview is the fact that Chef Leo never owned his own pizzeria. He is content to work other operations. He wants to help make pizza. He is enthusiastic about helping to develop the concept. His goal is to make pizza as well as show others how to make pizza.

While the pizza was always number one for Chef Leo. He was more interested in looking at the big picture. He was more excited about watching and being part of the large pizza operation. He wanted to help integrate the back of the house and was content to make sure the operations always ran consistently.

Vito of Stella’s Pizza Pie Talks Mobile Pizza Business

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]

Stella's Pizza Pie Oven

Stella’s Pizza Pie Oven

In this video I interview Vito Romani of Vito’s Pizza Pie. Vito is the owner of Stella’s Pizza Pie which is a mobile pizza business. This interview took place at Pizza Expo

Pizza Therapy supports the Pizza ExpoHis pizza business is a catering business and although he is based outside of San Diego, he is able to travel with his pizza business to various locations. Vito has taken his oven up to Northern California. He is able to take his pizza oven anywhere, and is actually a rolling pizza party on Wheels.

“This is a fun family oriented business that really makes me enjoy life.”

Vito explains how he had always loved pizza and wanted to get into the pizza business. This had been a life long dream of his. He had always wanted  to follow the pizza dream.

As with most budding pizza business owners, he started first by researching. He consumed all he could about the pizza business. He looked at buying a pizza business and also more importantly  running a pizza business. He spent months finding all the answers to his questions. He felt he had a great knowledge base….he was ready.

One of the first learning experiences for pizza was to attend The Fire Within Pizza University.

Fire Within

Fire Within

Vito explained that he learned more at the Fire Within than he had learned in all those months of trying to learn on his own. He was able to purchase his oven directly from The Fire Within. The oven is made by Forno Bravo

The best thing about Vito’s pizza operation is that he can go anywhere to cater events. From Farmer’s Markets, to weddings, to private parties and even corporate events, he is ready to bring his pizza restaurant on wheels. Guests are able to see the pizza being made and are able to interact with his and his staff. The oven is the focal point for the entire operation. The pizzas that come out speak for the business creating an edible calling card and promotion.

As you can imagine there is quite a bit of work in preparing the ingredients and dough, setting everything up as well as taking everything down at the end of the day. At the event itself, he explains it is well worth it.

He entered the pizza competition with the Best Pizza Makers in Canada. There were 25 entries in all. The contestants had come for all over the whole country.
Joe knew he had made a great pizza. As far as he was concerned, he thought it would be good enough for 3rd place.
When the winner of 3rd place was announced he was a little disappoint but he thought, well maybe 2nd place.

In the following Interview, Joe explains how he entered the contest which was sponsored by a Canadian Pizza Magazine.

I Want to Get Into The Pizza Business Advice

Pizza Trolley Pizza Oven

Pizza Trolley Pizza Oven

I get the following question asked of me regularly about getting into the pizza business..

“How do I get into the pizza business?”

Here is an example, of the question with my response:

Abhi writes:
“Hey Albert
How are you doing ? I’m planning to open my own pizza cafe in the future,
but I have a long way to go.

Today I made some pizza’s, but wasn’t too happy with how the pizza came out, when I make the dough, I know I’m using the
measurements to make the dough, but i fail to get the same dough every time,

I was wondering if i could work as an apprentice at your pizza place? That will help my solve my unanswered question
Ride,Respect,Rewrite

Abhi

My response:

Hello Abhi,

Thanks for writing.

I do not own a pizza place at this time.

I do have some options for you….

If you would like to learn the pizza business with hands on experience I have a few suggestions for you….I have personal experience with different ways to learn the pizza business.

I suggest you apply for employment at one of the pizzerias in your area. I think that is the best way to get hands on training.

Pizza Therapy supports the Pizza Expo

Consider going to Pizza Expo. you can learn first hand all about the pizza business and the options available to you.

If you want to learn to make professional pizza skills I suggest you take a class at my friend Tony Gemignani’s pizza school.

Here is the link:

TONY GEMIGNANI’S INTERNATIONAL SCHOOL OF PIZZA

The Fire Within is another option:

One of the best operations to learn the Pizza Business is The Fire Within.  They are a combination Pizza School as well as makers of portable wood fired ovens. The school has classes regularly and will teach you everything you need to know about the pizza business. The staff are dedicated pizza professionals and will help you in any way possible to succeed.
Here is a video I created about them:

 

Fire Within

I can’t say enough about the integrity and the passion of the Fire Within. They really want you succeed.

These are just some ideas to get you started and thinking about starting your pizza operation.

I did an extensive interview with Anthony Saportio. Anthony was very motivated to get into the pizza business. He took an interesting path to learn the pizza business. He started by taking classes and researching different pizza schools. He took years to learn his craft and finally became an apprentice of Paulie Gee. (FYI: I intervewed Paule about the pizza business, you can find out more by watching the Paulie Gee interview on YouTube.

Anthony and I did a series of interviews. He outlines his whole process for getting into the Pizza Business. The interview was so long I posted in in 3 parts.

Paulie Gee on Paulie Gee’s, Pizza and the Pizza Business

Paulie Gee's Logo

I was extremely lucky to land this interview with Paulie Gee. After stalking him for 2 days at Pizza Expo, I was excited to be able to discuss pizza, and to discover his favorite pizzerias and how he started in the pizza business.

Albert Grande and Paulie Gee

Albert Grande and Paulie Gee

The interview started badly. I called him a legend of pizza as well as a pizzaiolo. He stopped me dead in my tracks by proclaiming he was no legend, just a guy who makes pizza. And he said there are no pizzaiolo at Paulie Gee’s, just pizza guys.

After we got over that bump, the interview went well. Paulie Gee was open about how he happened to get into the pizza business. After working in the IT profession for 30 years he decided to move on and follow his dream. Although he loved to cook, he did not see himself opening a restaurant. He knew it had to be pizza. So he formulated a plan.

He started to make pizza at home and worked at perfecting his craft. He used Peter Reinhart’s book: American Pie My Search for the Perfect Pizza as a model. He worked on his pizza dough recipe and kept working on it. He experimented with different dough recipes until he had it the way he wanted it.

"First and foremost its about the love of pizza..."

Paulie Gee on the love of pizza!

His goal was not to be a pizza hobbyist. Rather he knew all along he wanted to get into the pizza business. He made pizza for friends, family, and bloggers. He fed them pizza, got them drunk,  and they spread the word. He continued to make pizza and soon many people were discussing Paulie Gee’s great pizza..

His vision of Paulie Gee’s was not so much to open just another pizzeria. He wanted his place to be an experience. He explained he he wanted Paulie Gee’s to look like the “Little Rascals” opened up a pizzeria. He wanted his place to be totally different. He wanted a certain amount of mystery as well as a comfortable. All along the way he sought out assistance from established pizza makers who shared his vision. Paulie Gee is thankful to all the assistance he has received and he acknowledges the assistance from others along the way.

Paulie does not allow any of his employees to wear Paulie Gee logos or hats. Rather he encourages his staff to wear t-shirts and hats from other pizzerias. Celebrating pizza is one of Paulie’s goals. The pizzas are non traditional melding various flavors such as sweet and savory with a hint of hotness.

Albert Grande Interviews Paulie Gee

Albert Grande Interviews Paulie Gee

He is also very supportive of anyone else who wants to follow the path of having their own pizzeria. He embodies the heart and soul of pizza. Because as you may know pizza is more than just water, salt yeast and flour. Magic happens when you make pizza. Paulie Gee wants to spread that magic around.

In the following interview Paulie talks about his favorite pizzas in New York. He speaks about some of the pizza makers who influenced him. He closes out by talking about what it takes to follow one’s dreams. Here’s the interview:

Inspiration from Billy Manzo, Federal Hill Pizza

Chef Billy Manzo is an inspirational pizza maker. He takes his craft seriously. He is funny and loves to laugh. He has a unique sense of humor, and he loves making pizza. He believes in using only quality ingredients to make the best possible pizza.

He is also an inspirational story teller. He shared his story during our visit to Federal Hill Pizza in Warren, Rhode Island.

Federal Hill Pizza, Warren Rhode Island

Federal Hill Pizza, Warren Rhode Island

Billy started in the pizza business out of necessity. He owned a Cigar Lounge on Atwells Avenue in Providence for 16 years. Part of of the licensing agreement was that he serve some type of food. He thought about hot dogs and hamburgers, but decided he would do better with pizza. The first day he started he sold 40 pizzas. and thus began his pizza journey! He only did 2 types of pizza, a Margherita and a pepperoni pizza.

The pizzas became a hit. The owner of the Eastside Market in Providence asked if he could sell the pizza dough. He recognized the quality of the pizza dough.  Soon other businesses were asking for some of his dough, so he decided to get in the wholesale pizza dough business. Within 6 months Billy was selling his dough to over 200 retail outlets in the state of Rhode Island and part of Massachusetts.

Chef Billy Manzo

Chef Billy Manzo

After his daughter was born, he decided to go into a different direction and went into the retail side of the pizza business. He opened his shop, Federal Hill Pizza in Warren.

Billy believes the best route to take for any entrepreneur is simplicity. You need to know the simplicity of where your product comes from and where it is going to the end consumer. Simplicity is the philosophy that drives his business. The is why one of the foundations of his pizza is the Margherita.

Pizza at Federal Hill Pizza

As he explains, “you can’t hide from a Margherita”. It is the foundation of his entire menu. While he offers a number of Italian dishes at his pizzeria, he prefers to stick with the basics.

He was laos forht coming on some tips for the home pizza maker.

  1. Temperature of your oven.
  2. A pizza stone in your oven and
  3. patience.

The patience in working your dough and allowing it to ferment properly is key. You need to let your dough rise for at least 24 hours…

One of the more important aspects of any pizza according to Tony is the water used when making pizza. He discusses the use of a reverse osmosis machine in preparing the water used for pizza. The water is critical in making great pizza Tony explains. The reverse osmosis process pulls everything out of the water. Tony shows us the industrial dough mixer that is used to create the pizza dough.

“Water is the second highest ingredient is pizza dough, states Tony. “Not so much the flavor of it, but how the yeast works, the softness of it, the conditioning of it, the manageability of it. There is a lot that goes into it. You do not want to use super hard water”.

The Pizza Trolley Is for Sale

The Pizza Trolley

The Pizza Trolley

I was recently contacted by Michael about The Pizza Trolley.
Michael purchased the trolley and retrofitted it to sell pizza. And it turned out beautiful!

Unfortunately, due to personal reasons, he needs to sell it…And once I saw this baby, I had a lot of questions myself….

Albert: Where did you purchase your mobile pizza oven?

Michael: We purchased the Trolley thru a trolley broker located in Colorado. The Trolley was used in a park in Arkansas for transporting their visitors. We had it shipped to us in FL. We are in construction, so we did the complete retrofit. I have attached an information sheet on all the work we have performed. Also, this link is to our drop box with photos of inside and out. 

Albert: What type of oven do you have? 

Michael: We have a Mugnaini 120 purchased directly from them.

Albert: What is your asking price for your mobile pizza oven? 

Michael: Asking $129,000, but will listen to reasonable offers. We have actual cost of slightly over $130,000 into it with all the work, equipment, etc.

Pizza Trolley Pizza Oven

Albert: You want me to put the word out that your pizza business is for sale?

 Michael: Certainly I would welcome that. We have not been in business long enough to establish strong Good Will for a business sale, but the reception we received in the short time we were in service is truly  a great sign. We were very proud that we offered personal sized, made to order pizzas of very high quality. With the speed with which the oven bakes, we were well ahead of any other food truck at truck festivals and events because we could service our customers much quicker. We use a 3 ½ oz ball, makes 7” pizza. Use 00 flour, San Marzano tomatoes, imported olive oil. We had not yet gotten to point of making our own mozzarella and burata but it was in our sights to do so.

Albert: Would you be willing to train the new owner? 

Michael: I would be happy to do so. And, I think a smart buyer would want that, unless they were to go to one of the very noted Masters of Pizza for training.

Albert: I also have a few tried and true suggestions, if you want to hear them…  

Michael: Absolutely I would be interested in hearing them. Trolley is way too costly to leave parked in garage. I need to find a happy owner.

Albert: Michael, one of the best ways to promote anything is through video.

I was so excited about the Pizza Trolley, I had to make a video.

In Search of the Pizza Dream Part 1

Here is a letter I recently received:

“Albert, A few years ago I sent you an email, asking you for some advice. I had just gotten laid off from my Job on Wall Street and knew that I didn’t want to go back into the fat race of the financial world. I loved making pizza and knew I wanted to do something with the passion I had for it.

Alberto Grande, Giorgia, and Roberto Caporuscio

Alberto Grande, Giorgia, and Roberto Caporuscio

When we first spoke ,you pretty much told me that I knew what I had to do, deep down. You reminded me that since I lived in New York, there were ample opportunities to sculpt my craft. In other words The knowledge was there for the taking. I just needed to cease it. Not long after we spoke I wrote a letter to two titans of the pizza world. Roberto Caporuscio, of Keste, and Paulie Gee of Paulie Gees.

Paulie G. and Albert G.

Paulie G. and Albert G.

You commented to me you enjoyed reading that letter so much that you put it in one of your newsletters. In the letter I explained my passion, and how serving pizza, and more importantly, bringing others together with good food was in my blood.

The letter went over so well that I was able to learn from both of these masters, first at Roberto’s pizza class and then working at Paulie Gees as a Pizzaiolo for 2 years. The knowledge I gained has been invaluable and I am indebted to both Men for the opportunities they gave me as well as my resume. Now I am starting my own place. It is called ” Urban Fire” located in Madison, NJ.

We will be serving authentic Neapolitan pizza and Italian Street eats, Such as Porchetta sandwiches, zeppoles , Arancini , salads etc. We have a Stefano Ferrara oven from Naples , and our pizza will be severed I a fast/casual style, where the customer gets to go down the line and choose what sauce, cheese and toppings they prefer, to create their own pie. We cook it in our wood burning oven at 800- 1000 degrees and the pie will be ready in 60-90 seconds! I am very excited We should be opened in March, but before then I just waned to reach out to you and say, “thank you” for your help and advice in getting me started.

You helped me get on the path to following my dream and now that dream is finally becoming a reality. Please, if you are ever in the NY/NJ area, please stop by and see me. I’d be honored to host you. Also.

Once again Albert, thank you for everything, for all your help along the way and as always,

Pizza on Earth!

Yours truly,

Anthony Saporito, Owner

Urban Fire,
Madison, NJ

Thanks Anthony. Tell us more about your pizza quest!

I understand you have just undertaken an incredible journey to have a goal
of getting into the pizza business.

Albert: You had a dream, you showed passion and you put effort in and you made
your dream a reality…

 Tell me a bit about you Anthony. What led you to get into the pizza
business?

Anthony: I studied Finance in College. Don’t ask me why. It never really excited me. For the first 10 years after college I worked as a Trader on the Floor of the New York Stock Exchange. At first I loved the fast pace, and interaction with others, but one day we all came in and they told us that the Exchange was abandoning its 200 year old way of doing business, and going computerized. After that, Layoffs started coming every few months. It was a terrible feeling, wondering day to day, when it was going to be your turn. When I first started, my company had 350 employees. When I finally did get laid off, there was 48. I was actually ecstatic when my Boss tapped me on the shoulder to tell me the news -I had already been dreaming of Pizza for the last 2 years prior. Getting laid off was just the kick in the rear I needed to get started.

Albert: Of all the other Jobs, why did you decide to do your own business. Why Pizza?

Anthony:  Entertaining others and cooking for them is in my blood. I grew up in a traditional Italian/American household and my Grandmother’s house on Sunday was like Grand Central station. People came in and out all day. Some stayed for dinner, some ate and ran, some came for coffee. I was always enamored how she was able to feed everyone with such ease and how much Joy she was able to bring to others by doing so. It was contagious. Even when I was in college, and studying Finance, I was still always using the Kitchen in my dorm to cook for everyone. I loved it.

Working in a Job that I had zero drive for really annoyed me. I knew that the next line of business I went into was going to be something I had a Passion for. I didn’t have to think for too long to come up with, what exactly that was, and the answer was Pizza. Pizza is just one of those things that makes everyone happy and excited. You have an age old recipe, and yet you can still be creative. And creating different pizzas with the sole purpose of having others enjoy it, and bringing a smile to their face is what moves me. Much like the feeling I had at my Grandmothers house. I always wanted to do something on my own in the food service industry. This was my chance. I was 30 years old, and decided to do something on my own that I knew I would love. Had I just put my Résumé online and took another desk job, I knew I’d regret it for the rest of my life. I had to take a shot.

Stay tuned for the rest of this incredible interview….

The Pizza Place Interview with Rosario Cacciatore

The Pizza Place, Westerly Rhode Island

The Pizza Place, Westerly Rhode Island

Rosario Cacciatore knows pizza. He first started to make pizza while he was the dishwasher at the Recovery Room, in New London. FYI: the Recovery Room makes some of the best pizza in Southeastern Connecticut.

Now, Rosario has opened his own pizzeria in nearby, Westerly, Rhode Island. Known simply as the Pizza Place, he continues to make great pizza.

Now The Pizza place is making the best pizza in Rhode Island.

For me one of the most interesting things he states is about making pizza. He does explain that you need to use only the finest ingredients. You need very fresh high qulaity ingredients.

But then he goes on to explain that unless you have a love for pizza, it just does not turn out right.

Visit the Pizza Place and let us know what you think.

Frank Giovanni Explains Saladino’s Pizzeria Supplier Success

Frank Giovanni helps pizzerias by supplying them with the finast ingredients. Salandino’s has been in the business for over 50 years. They always put their customers first. You can visit them at;

The story of Saladino’s, Inc., is proof that great things can come from personal commitment, unwavering determination and old fashioned family values.

The story begins in Fresno, California, where Don Saladino worked in the meat department of his father’s grocery store. In 1944, Don combined his meat packaging experience with Old World family recipes from Italy’s Calabrese region, and launched Saladino Sausage Company – the business grew quickly and earned a widespread reputation for delicious, high-quality sausage products.

In 1980, Don’s son, Craig, joined his father in the family business. Together, they expanded their product offerings to include specialty sausage and linguica, which they sold to local pizzerias and restaurants. The company’s wide variety of raw and cooked sausage products attracted a loyal following among a growing number of retail and institutional customers.

In this interview with Roberto Caporuscio of Keste Pizzeria and Vino, he reveals his inspiration for making great pizza.

Roberto explains his original inspiration for pizza was his mentor. Now he is inspired by his cusomers.

From the Keste website here is some history of Roberto:

It was…in Napoli, the birthplace of pizza, that Roberto went to study the art and craft of this culinary delight with the most talented masters of the Neapolitan pizza makers. After training with the best, he opened two successful pizzerias in Pittsburgh, followed by A Mano in Ridgewood, NJ . Each endeavor brought critical acclaim from the culinary industry, as well as the rave reviews and articles in books and magazines.

While I discussed pizza with Roberto, he revealed to me his true inspiration for pizza:

My customers are my inspiration…I want to do better every day for them. Every morning when I wake up I want to do a better job for them.

He also talks about his new pizza school. You can learn the art of pizza making from Roberto and his world reknowned staff.

What I was most impressed when I did this interview was how friendly and happy, Roberto was. He allowed his customers to come right up to him while he was making pizza. He answered all of their questions. He took time for them. He shared all of his knowledge about pizza. And he did it with a smile on his face.

Roberto is truly an inspirational pizzaiolo. A great person, making great pizza. What a combination.

International School of Pizza School Adds Two New Ovens

This just in from our old friend, Tony Gemignani:

"The International School of Pizza has teamed up with Roto Flex and Wood Stone Ovens.

The school has expanded and now offers authentic Old World New York and New Haven certifications with its new Wood Stone Fire Deck 9660 Coal Fire oven.

Woodstone Oven

Woodstone Oven at International School of Pizza

Rotoflex

 

The school now has the capability to teach students high production, gas, brick oven pizzas ranging from 6 to 22 inches.  With this expansion, the two ovens are next door to the original location and shares the space with one of San Francisco's newest concepts, "Tony's Coal Fired Pizza and Slice House".  Both of these ovens are monumental in the pizza industry. 

"When an operator fires an oven for the first time, you are usually scared to think when the oven will be seasoned enough to get the perfect bake.  By the time we cooked our third in both of these ovens, it was as if these ovens had been in my restaurant for 50 years." 

That's how good our pizzas performed and all my partners and employees were blown away." ~ Tony Gemignani

The school now has a total of six ovens and certifies in every style.
