About LeonTries

Welcome to LeonTries – where real home pizza experiments happen!
This blog is all about one delicious mission:
Mastering Neapolitan-style pizza at home.
No pizza oven in Naples, no culinary degree, and no chef hat. Just a passion for good dough, bubbling cheese, and crusts with personality.

Why This Site Exists

I started this blog to document my journey as I tested, tweaked, and occasionally failed at making amazing pizza in a regular home kitchen. Over time, I realized that so many people are trying to do the same thing – and running into the same questions:

  • Why is my dough too soft?
  • Do I need a pizza stone or steel?
  • Which oven is worth buying?
  • Is this sauce too watery?

If you’ve asked any of these – you’re in the right place.

Who’s Behind LeonTries?

Let’s just say I’m a pizza-obsessed home cook who prefers staying behind the scenes.
I don’t post selfies. I don’t do TikToks.
This blog isn’t about me – it’s about helping you get better at pizza (and eventually, maybe more than pizza).
