At La Casetta in Vilcabamba, we take pride in our unique pizza, and one of the secrets to our deliciousness is our use of sourdough for the dough. Sourdough not only gives our pizza a distinctive flavor and texture, but it also provides numerous health benefits. For instance, sourdough is easier to digest compared to yeasted dough, and it boasts a higher content of vitamins and minerals. This combination of flavor and nutrition sets our pizza apart.
Quality Ingredients Make a Difference
In addition to our special dough, we carefully select only the finest ingredients for our pizzas. Our pizzas are made using sea salt that enhances flavors, virgin olive oil for richness, panela for a hint of sweetness, and an assortment of fresh vegetables that provide taste and vibrancy. By focusing on high-quality ingredients, we ensure that every slice of pizza represents the best of Italian cuisine.
The Magic of Wood-Fired Cooking
To elevate our pizza experience even further, we use a traditional wood-fired brick oven for cooking. This method not only provides an authentic Italian flavor but also creates the perfect crispy crust that pizza lovers crave. The high temperatures of a wood-fired oven allow the ingredients to cook evenly, locking in flavor and moisture. It’s the culmination of our ingredients, techniques, and passion for quality that makes our pizza truly unique.
