These days we hardly hear about anything else. Media and social networks have been invaded by a 'culinary tidal wave, which has pervaded and squeezed them in the grip of controversy. Galeotta was the pizza, it may well be said. Precisely the chef's pizza Carlo Cracco, a former star of the show Masterchef, and owner of a prestigious restaurant in Milan. What happened so serious that it caused this uproar on poor Cracco? We tell you!
Carlo Cracco, no, no, no ... you can't call it pizza!
Well, after a long time, the chef Carlo Cracco has decided to open a nice restaurant. This after retiring from the scene with the last farewell to Masterchef (they even did a fake funeral in his honour). The illustrious Cracco, located in the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele in Milan, has given and still gives, delicacies of all kinds. Certainly a chef like Carlo Cracco, always looking for innovation and surprise, needs always designing new dishes in order to be competitive and attract customers. One fine day (maybe not), Cracco tried his hand at revisiting one of the Neapolitan delicacies known all over the world, the Pizza margherita! Not happy, Cracco also photographed his pizza, and displayed it on Twitter, the social network of the stars. In a very short time, the controversy fell on the unfortunate chef, especially from the proud people of Naples, who said he was largely indignant at this risky choice.
It should not be forgotten that the Neapolitan pizza is UNESCO heritage, therefore its recipe is as sacred as the cult of San Gennaro. Cracco has created a pizza that differs from the original type, with mixtures of different cereals that make it more crunchy, and with a thicker sauce. This could not be seen lightly by the city of Naples: this city makes pizza Margherita a foundation of its identity!
Carlo Cracco defended by Gino Sorbillo: honor to pizza!
In this storm between those who prefer pizza authentic, and those who have a more Dadaist spirit, the famous Gino Sorbillo. One of the most famous Neapolitan pizza chefs in history, a long time friend of Carlo Cracco, has returned with pleasure to Milan to take stock of the pizza issue. In defense of Cracco, Sorbillo claimed that recreate the Pizza in this case it was more a tribute than anything else, and that around Italy many self-styled pizza chefs create what's this called pizzas, but which have absolutely nothing of pizzas.
Absolved Cracco by the King of pizza, Gino Sorbillo, why does he still mistreat this innovative choice? probably the chef is still serving the role of the evil judge in Masterchef. Perhaps, on the other hand, Naples does not want to see one cake associated with pizza. In short, you always have to try new dishes, but you don't have to never, ever forget the tradition!
