Yet, no matter how many times I read the origin story of Detroit pizza, I still can't grasp the logic of the person who looked at the blue-steel pans used in the auto industry and thought, Those would work nicely to bake my Sicilian slab pies.
The owner wanted to create his own version of sfincione, a square slice commonly sold on the streets of Palermo. The tool-and-die crew suggested they might have the perfect pans to do the job.
Seasoned steel pans are, of course, essential for Detroit pizza to achieve the right color, texture and that all-important caramelized cheese crust.
