At one of its locations, staff asked each customer who came in over a two-week period if they would prefer a “firmer” version of the Napoletana same crust. Nine out of 10 said they would.

Here’s the breakdown of how the pizzas will be made:

• Made with the same ingredients (Caputo 00 Italian flour, sea salt, yeast, and distilled water only).
• Slight change in the ratio of water and yeast in the firmer version, as well as mixing in a certain amount of proofed dough versus all being fresh.
• Let the firm crust dough balls proof for a minimum of 24 hours.

The changes will be rolling out in the next few weeks, the restaurant said.
