ristorante pizzeria santa croce, Italia In Roma

04/08/2024: A PIZZA fit for a king I received it at home from a dear friend, who introduced me to a type of stuffed pizza that was completely unknown to me, who also love pizzas. I had already tasted them just over a month ago, stuffed with vegetables, one with mussels and the other with octopus, but today's one, at 🐙, was particularly fresh and therefore even better. Legend has it - as the dedicated website states - that the inventor of the first tiella was probably Ferdinand IV of Bourbon (1751-1825), who ordered its composition to a housewife busy kneading dough. These are two discs of pizza with vegetable and fish fillings. Today the tielle menu is very varied, and conditioned only by the alternation of the seasons. As for fish, octopus, cod mussels, anchovies and salted anchovies are mixed with escarole, onions and tomatoes. But there are tielle di Gaeta also reserved for vegans, because they are stuffed, as in Ferdinand's time - only with seasonal vegetables and seasoned with extra virgin olive oil.
