Trenton-style tomato pie · Madison
Trenton-style tomato pie is a New Jersey regional pizza with the tomato sauce ladled on top of the cheese, baked on a crisp thin crust, brought to Madison by Salvatore's.
Trenton-style tomato pie originated in Trenton, New Jersey, at Papa's Tomato Pies in 1912 and DeLorenzo's Tomato Pies in 1947, where the sauce-on-top construction allowed long bakes without scorching the cheese. Patrick DePula and Nichole brought the style west, opening Salvatore's Tomato Pies in Sun Prairie, Wisconsin, in 2011, then expanding to the Madison Livingston Street location and Monona. The tomato pie at Salvatore's is the Trenton recipe with Wisconsin mozzarella and a longer-fermented dough.
