Incredible pizzas and authentic Italian recipes from street-foodie brothers who have taken London by storm.

Pizza Pilgrims is the brainchild of James and Thom Elliot who made up our minds to surrender their ‘proper’ jobs to follow a dream. Excited by the burgeoning street food movement in London, they made up our minds to shuttle 4,000km around Italy in their Ape three-wheeler van, meeting food producers, top chefs and passionate local cooks, to uncover the best-kept secrets of pizza making and bring them home. Armed with their Italian foodie knowledge, they set up shop (or van) in Berwick Street market in Soho selling fantastic takeaway pizzas at a reasonable price. Since then they’ve garnered five-star reviews for their food, opened a pop-up restaurant, which used to be an instant sell-out and fed a host of hungry festival goers right through the summer.

This book shows how to make the best pizzas ever – from the simple but revered Neapolitan margherita to saltimbocca (pizza sandwiches) and pizza nduja (pizza topped with a spicy pork sausage). Pizza Pilgrims makes a speciality of the key ingredients and techniques so that it will make your pizza stand out from the crowd in addition to showcasing other cherished Italian recipes from the brothers; Pepperonata on bruschetta, Tuscan chicken with green olives, the cheese farmer’s wife’s Caciofiore ravioli, vanilla ice cream three ways and many, many more. James and Thom’s enthusiasm for Italian food is addictive and this can be a cookbook to inspire and to have fun with.
