The longest pizza in Italy measures 50 meters
A nice news that arrived: the longest pizza in the world, prepared in Naples on May 18th, 2016 has officially entered the 2017 edition of the "Guinness World Record" book, published and ready for sale. Oh yes, we are talking about the pizza prepared on the Caracciolo seafront whose dimensions have reached not insignificant figures: a length of 1853.88 meters and a width of about 50 centimeters.
The "titanic" undertaking, organized by the "Pizza Village" and the "Neapolitan Pizzaiuoli" association, carried out on the Caracciolo seafront, which for the occasion was equipped with five mobile ovens, two thousand kilos of flour and fiór of milk, a ton and a half of tomato, thirty kilos of fresh basil and loaves moistened by two hundred liters of oil, all completed by a host of expert labor, 250 pizza makers ready to knead everything, had a great resonance in the media that not only intrigued the whole world but drew attention to the fact that until then no pizza made in the past could match it. The testimonies of those who were able to see it live that day are truly surprising, a culinary wonder not only for the eyes but also for the palate.
Pizza, a dish that has made the city of Naples famous all over the world, thanks to the majesty of this strictly made in Naples enterprise, has acquired another important record, this time a place of honor in the most curious book there is.
The longest pizza in the world? It is almost 2 km long and weighs 7,800 kilos. No, they didn't do it in Naples: this time the record was conquered in Los Angeles, California, on June 10, thus snatching the record from the Neapolitan capital. To make the longest pizza in the world, flour from the Caputo Mill was used (the same as the record pizza in Naples), it took 1,600 kilos of cheese, 2,542 kilos of tomato sauce and hours and hours of work by chefs and volunteers inside the Fontana car circuit. The cooking of the very long pizza was done by leaning it on a track that crossed a two-mouthed oven.
The Californian pizza thus beat the Neapolitan one, made on the city's Caracciolo promenade, on May 18, 2016, "only" 1 kilometer long, 853 meters and 88 centimeters. At the news, the Neapolitans declared "war": the pizza maker Ernesto Fico posted on Facebook a photo of last year's Guinness World Record with the phrase: "Ce ripigliamm' chell che è 'o nuost"... we didn't have to stop at Castel dell'Ovo...».
