Ideal Recipe Proportions

12" Medium • Neapolitan (Wood-Fired)

Pizza Sauce

77g

2.7 oz (~0.32 cup)

Mozzarella

93g

3.3 oz (~0.8 cups)

Cheese: Fresh Fior di Latte or Buffalo Mozzarella (drained)

Sauce: San Marzano tomatoes + salt (uncooked)

💡 Keep sauce light! High heat (900°F) traps steam; excess moisture leads to soup in the center.
