Call me old school
I love my pizza to be soft and springy with crispy outer crust
I don’t crave for the thin and crisp crust that is popular nowadays
My family love pizza and we make them together
From kneading the dough
To stamping the crust
Applying tomato paste to the crust
Layering ingredients and cheeses
Family who eat together Stay together
