pizza pie aka the frienda kind!

A pizza, or two, helped celebrate special occasions; family and friends often put in their request. My Grandma Angelo called this style pizza, the only kind she made, “the frienda kind.” In fact, she called a lot of things frienda, her Italian slang the best I can explain it, means something that is the most familiar to all.
<br />
<br />This recipe is similar to the days gone by - as I only have memory to go on, it was never written down; crushed tomato sauce, sautéed garlic, basil, a sprinkle or two of pecorino and melt in your mouth stringy mozzarella over a square shaped yeast dough that bakes airy and crisp – that’s the frienda kind.
<br />
<br />Today, I keep the pizza memories alive, and am known not only for the pizza but for the party moments that goes with it; definitely a feast enjoyed by all.
