September 20, 2019 - LAMP Pizzeria - Scottsdale, Arizona

Carol Thompson and I stopped for lunch after our doctor appointments in North Scottsdale.  I had suggested that we try LAMP Pizzeria.


I ordered the Mignulata…this was made from the regular pizza dough – which is cold-proofed for 4-5 days and returned to room temperature…that is rolled into a rectangular sheet…the dough is brushed with olive oil and showered with lots of freshly cracked black pepper..the filling is then added to the rectangular….a healthy dose of grated pecorino cheese..and Lamp’s house sausage – a fragrant intense pork sausage that’s flavored with things including chianti, sambuca, allspice and fennel.  Blanched cauliflower florets and onions.  The onions are shaved very thinly. The mignulata is rolled out like a jelly roll…creating a thick log aa couple of feet long.  That is egg washed…and is popped into the wood oven…when it is finished baking it it cut crosswise into thick slices.  It is then basted with a little more olive oil….and it goes back in the wood oven on a hot meta plate for just a few minutes to give the edges a sizzling brown crunch…just before it is served a little more olive oil is drizzled on the mignulata slices…followed by a dusting of pecorino cheese.

This time I just had it plain…next time I am adding Calabrian chile oil.

Carol ordered the White Pizza with fresh Mozzarella, Pecorino, EEVOO, Sea Salt…no Cracked Black Pepper for her…but she wanted Garlic on it and Parmigian-Reggiano Cheese…it was delicious…wood oven baked…crust was excellent.
