Frequently Asked Questions

What does the double cooking process mean for the Montanara?
The same dough goes through two cooking stages. First the raw dough is lightly fried in hot oil for under a minute, which puffs the structure. Then it is topped with sauce, smoked buffalo mozzarella and basil and finished in a wood-fired oven that browns the cheese and crisps the surface. The result is a crust that is slightly compact from the fry and airy at the rim from the bake.
How is the Montanara different from a regular Margherita?
Both use the same Caputo dough, but the cooking process differs. The Margherita is baked once. The Montanara is fried first, then baked, and it is topped with smoked buffalo mozzarella instead of standard fresh mozzarella, with basil added at the end. The Montanara is denser at the center and smokier, with a fried-bread character.
Is the Montanara pizza gluten free?
No. The standard Montanara uses Caputo Super Nuvola dough, which contains gluten. A Gluten Free Montanara made with Caputo Fioreglut is available as a separate option. For celiac diners we recommend contacting our support team for the latest production procedure.

Beyond Expectations

We’re too old to make the trip, but we’ve always wanted to try authentic New York pizza. Thanks to Keste we have, and they didn’t disappoint. Everybody says that New York pizza is “just better”. They were right. We loved it, and we will be ordering again.

Ricorda alla pizza fritta a Napoli

How rare is it to find anyone in the USA who even knows about Napoli's long tradition of pizza fritta. Yet Roberto and his team do it in a way that one can enjoy at home. When in Napoli, definitely buy pizza fritta on the street, but when in the USA order a Montanara from Kesté! Sta è 'a vera tradizione napoletana!
