Cheese pizzas There are as many as ingredients of this dairy derivative you want to add to the dough before passing it through the oven. But a French chef named Benoit Bruel, who runs a pizzeria in the city of Lyon (France), wanted to be part of the history of the Book Guinness World Records. How? Well, elaborating with great care and enormous dedication a forceful and unimaginable pizza. Last Monday, December 30, he received recognition for his dish whose secret goes beyond mastering the preparation technique and choosing the ingredients. Because the challenge was huge but he has managed to overcome it with a tasty result in sight.
The difficult variety-size relationship
Bruel owns the pizzeria Deliss in which it offers its clients in Lyon some spectacular delicacies in a very varied menu of pizzas of all kinds. Now, his specialty surely after having achieved the milestone that has motivated this article is cheese. Even before setting out to beat the record he had Australia I thought that the French should have it yes or yes because the products dairy from France are recognized worldwide.
So it was he himself who ventured to get the prize of elaborating the pizza with the greatest number of cheese varieties. The number with which Australians ranked first was 154 cheeses in a mass of no more than 30 centimeters, as this is what the Guinness competition regulations stated! That awful!
Well, if that amount sounds like an exaggeration, wait to put an adjective to the cheese pizza of the French chef. He had a major challenge in fitting even more varieties into that same size pizza maker, considered normal. What he had to achieve was simply to exceed that number but ... he decided bend it over even! Yes, Bruel managed to make a dough with up to 254 different types of cheese. Its production cost was about U.S. dollar 1.000. How do you stay?
A little bit of each on your cheese pizza
It is difficult to imagine what a cheese pizza so populated with that tremendous amount but the key was to include the maximum possible number and, in addition, in a coherent. I mean, it wouldn't make any sense to create this dish with its ingredient list stacked or structured to be nearly impossible to eat. It also had no capacity in the mass of 30 centimeters to integrate each and every one of those 254 types. Therefore, he chose to include only a few few grams of each of the varieties that he first thought and chose wisely.
This last aspect was also important so that each bite could taste the varieties that best match each other. Especially since mixing so many types without a logic of flavor and texture would have made the dish inedible. That was not the idea. He had to play well both with achieving the record and offering a attractive cheese pizza to the palate. For less than € 50, some lucky customers who stopped by their Deliss store could eat it afterwards. This is how he related it in the following video that he shot and posted on his channel FlorianOnAirsu.
And what is the longest pizza there is?
Seeing in the video the masterful result of the pizza Bruel cheeses The question that arises is how it would taste depending on where each bite is given. And well, since we are talking about this typical dish of Italian gastronomy, we are going to remind you what it is the longest pizza that exists. It was developed in Nápoles in 2016, in the cradle of this delicacy, originally from that city, and reached the distance of 1,8 kilometers of length.
On the other hand, the largest on the planet also has an Italian stamp. It was in Roma where it was created in 2012. Its barbarous final size was Sqm 1.261,65. A milestone that the Roman pizza masters achieved to enter the Guinness of Records.
In short, these brave chefs never cease to amaze us who dare to raise some dishes of record. The cheese pizza is the last example. Will anyone ever surpass this success? Would it be possible to put him more varieties?
