The Restless Quest for a Better Frozen Pizza | The New York Times
“Anthony Mangieri, the founder of Una Pizza Napoletana in Manhattan, said he has made every ball of pizza dough he has ever served during his 30 years in the business. But in 2017, he set out on a new quest: to create a frozen pizza that would meet his standards — wood-fired, slow-risen, fashioned from all-natural and all-Italian ingredients — but made almost entirely with automation.”
“If we aren’t pushing to be better, why are we even getting up in the morning? [Anthony Mangieri] said.”
“1. GENIO DELLA PIZZA: This pizza, with its lavishly oily and salty crust, smartly avoided the dryness that plagued its competitors. “Am I getting Cheese Nips?” asked Eric, who praised its aroma, a key part of the pizza-eating experience. The proportion of tomato to crust felt right, and the crust had sourdough flavor, something we missed in the other pies.”

“Your pizza, Anthony, is way too good for only the hundred or so people who are lucky enough to get in here every night. And what about the people who can't? What about the ones who can't get into New York? Shouldn't they have some of this, too? …The freezer section. We start there. Best frozen pie ever.”
