Join the conversation! Pizza Quest is certainly about pizza, but it’s so much more! It’s an engaging celebration of artisanship in all its shapes and forms. Award winning author Peter Reinhart interviews many of the greatest pizza makers in the world, as well as growers, cheese makers, millers, and food producers of all kinds who all who have one thing in common: an unquenchable drive to experience and express the highest level of excellence in their work, and to share it with their friends, family, and customers. Peter explores the varying journeys that led them to achieve prominence in their fields, and also offers listeners demonstrations of their craft, whether making their signature pizzas, or taking us on an in-depth tasting tour of their olive oil, tomatoes, cheeses, and toppings. As Peter is fond of saying, “It’s more about the quest than the pizza, and the quest never ends.”
Most listeners now know who Chris Bianco is but fewer know of Rob DiNapoli, who runs one of the finest tomato products companies out of California's Central Valley. In this episode, they share the story of how they met and conceived the Bianco DiNapoli line of organic tomatoes, and what it takes to grow, pack, and bring a premium product like this to market -- and what happens when you can't keep up with the demand.
