Taking his imagination and cooking skills to the next level, Salsa Brava owner/chef, John Conley is kicking off the opening of his new catering venture – Fat Olives.
Fat Olives is a mobile, wood-fired pizza pie oven, offering Neopolitan pizza, unlike any you’ll find in Arizona. This style of pizza originating from Italy, typically is smothered with rich tomato sauce, and hand-made mozzarella cheese.
“We use Caputo Tipo 00 flour that delivers both a crisp crust and a moist crumb. Staying true to Neopolitan tradition, we use only flour, yeast, salt and water in our dough making for a tastier pie with fewer calories and carbohydrates,” John Conley said.
At Fat Olives in Flagstaff, we use hand-made pizza dough and mozzarella, San Marzano tomatoes, and fresh basil leaves. The pizza is baked for about 90 seconds in an oak, wood-fired brick pizza oven at about 700°F; creating a crispy, tender and aromatic pizza.
The chef uses a long, wooden paddle, called a peel, to insert and remove the pizzas. The result is a fragrant, delicious creation; one you can only get from Fat Olives of Flagstaff.
So, whether you are having an employee party, corporate event, wedding, or an event at your home, you can enjoy a fresh, sumptuous pizza at a reasonable price.
