Chef's notes

Sheet Pizza, Home Style

In Boston’s Italian North end, popular bread bakeries and some street vendors sold square sliced pizza. Homemade sheet pizzas were common among residents. Few if any owned circular pizza nor pizza stones. 

Virtually every Sunday, mom and I made pan pizza with Italian bread dough purchased from Boschetto’s Bakery on Salem Street, a short walk from our apartment. Without thinking about it, or consciously discussing it, Sunday is homemade pizza night.
