      The perfect being, huh? There is no such thing as perfect in this world. That may sound cliché, but it’s the truth. The average person admires perfection and seeks to obtain it. But, what’s the point of achieving perfection? There is none. Nothing. Not a single thing. I loathe perfection! If something is perfect, then there is nothing left. There is no room for imagination. No place left for a person to gain additional knowledge or abilities. Do you know what that means? For scientists such as ourselves, perfection only brings despair. It is our job to create things more wonderful than anything before them, but never to obtain perfection. A scientist must be a person who finds ecstasy while suffering from that antimony. In short, the moment that foolishness left your mouth and reached my ears, you had already lost. Of course, that’s assuming you are a scientist.

      Even if you had him tell you the steps one by one. Replicating them consistently and with the same skill he has?
      He tells it himself. Even him who has been making pizzas since age 15 with an almost borderline obsession with the dough cannot replicate it 100% of the time. He just gets it as close as possible. But the failure percentage is also still very high even if all you want is to be as close to perfect as possible.

    You can just tell someone is a true master when they are humble like this gentleman. He is not a chef...he's an artist. The way he pursues his art is like a spiritual journey. That's dedication. This video was beautiful! The part where he talks about all the changes in his life and how making dough and pizza was his constant was touching and deep. And that's no lie about San Marzano tomatoes. They're considered by many to be the Ferrari or Prada of canned tomato varieties. San Marzano tomatoes are now grown outside Italy in the US, but what first made American cooks seek out San Marzano tomatoes were cans of the official DOP San Marzano tomatoes, grown in a relatively small region between Naples and Salerno.
    DOP is the Italian abbreviation for Protected Designation of Origin, similar to the protected status of wines and foods like Parmigiano-Reggiano, Champagne, and Modena balsamic vinegar. Because of this designation, there's strict regulations that define them. These DOP tomatoes were famed for their balanced flavor that combines sweetness, tomatoey intensity and just the right amount of acid thanks to the volcanic soil high in potassium and phosphorous.

      He's not Italian but he demonstrates what being Italian is really all about. Passion! Constantly trying to find ways to improve things in and putting in time, patience and working hard in order to make the best product possible. It's not about money but becoming masters at what we do whether it be in the area of cooking, fashion, design, architecture or anything else. This guy deserves a standing ovation and credit for all his hard work. What we don't like are wannabes who take undeserved credit then turn around and spin it into a marketing tool. Many non-Italians (Americans in particular) don't understand this and take the easy route by copying/imitating us and then taking all the credit for themselves (for what usually turns out to be a second rate product). Whereas in order to reach this sort of excellence it takes time, effort, sacrifice and constant work.

    I absolutely love cooks and chefs like this master that are so passionate about their craft and you can tell he has spent years perfecting his pizza. It gives me hope in an age where chains are everywhere with usually sub par food (sometimes worse), whenever I find restaurants like his I make it a point to visit as often as I can to support them, hats off to this gentlemen!
