I Masanielli Pizzeria da Francesco Martucci 01/15/2020
Michael U.

On May 23rd, at the 50 Top Pizza Italy 2019 announcements in Naples, legendary Pizzaiolo Franco Pepe suddenly found himself tied for first, the name Francesco Martucci of I Masanielli in Caserta suddenly occupying the same rare air that Pepe in Grani had breathed alone for the previous two years. Known best as the home of Mozzarella Di Bufala, Caserta is the capital of the province of Caserta in the Campania region of Italy, and located just 30 minutes by car from Napoli I Masanielli can be found at Viale Giulio Douhet 11 where Martucci operate two ovens responsible for producing some nine hundred Pizzas per day in addition to Salads and Fritti. Not to be mistaken for similarly-named I Masanielli da Sasa Martucci, also in Caserta and owned by his brother, Francesco Martucci's Pizzeria is a large space with good lighting and a sizable Bar near the door, a collection of local Beer and Wine offered at fair prices to compliment I Masanielli's culinary creations. Beginning as a young boy at his uncle's Pizzeria in Caserta, first running errands before learning to shape Dough as a teen, Martucci can still be found on the line daily with his staff, this day stretching Pies and also expediting orders that entail approximately one Pizza leaving the kitchen every sixty seconds. Opened in September 2017, the Pizza style self-defined as "very mine," it is while waiting that guests are invited to snack on fried items including faultless Rice Balls and housemade Pasta, even the €1 Cheese Stick far better than usual thanks to locally produced Provolone. Contemporary from start to finish, and using a long-fermented blend of Flour to create Pizzas "a canotto," one will quickly notice a slight nuttiness and hints of smoke from Martucci's Crust, it's lightness largely unrivaled despite nearly-Montanara crispness that is best-appreciated simply with fresh Tomatoes, Basil and local Mozzarella.. Nothing short of a rags-to-riches story, I Masanielli's success continues thanks to creativity and obsessiveness, every Pizza including the now-famous "Riccia di Mammà" accounting for balance, but perhaps none more than Pizza "Pink" with Gorganzola Fondue and Fior di Latte laying the groundwork for drapes of Salame Rosa and crispy Zucchini added after exiting the oven.

So we tried to go somewhere in Naples on our way back from the amalfi but parking was impossible. This was the closest town, SUPER LOCAL! Was expecting a kind of run down place but Omg. Super modern interior, mouth wash in the bathrooms. Literally, no English menu, only Italians eating ONLY pizzas -- GASP SAY IT AIN'T SO This was the best pizza we've had between Rome and Positano. And cheap??? + €1.5pp /service + €3 / salad - basic lettuce but comes with amazing olive oil + €8.5 /pizza with pancetta and mozzarella - melt in your mouth mozzarella with this perfectly puffy and chewy crust, and the perfect amazing of tomato. Oh did I mention it has pumpkin that oh so exquisite as well? Would never imagine myself saying pumpkin on a pizza + €2 / fried pasta with some sort of meat - SO loved this, very crispy and everyone in there ordered it TLDR: boy am I glad we RANDOMLY FOUND this gem in this super small local town. Definitely recommend their pizza Tip: they have gluten free options as well :)
