> That appears to be the Italians taking the New York gas-oven idea and cranking it to 11. (480°C to be exact.)

Is that really the temperature New York pizza is cooked at? Every Napolitana pizza recipe I've made or seen is cooked around 330-350C in a stone oven with wood. Never imagined pizza would be cooked at such high temperatures.

Neapolitan. Approximately 380 (base) to 485°C (dome) in a wood-fired oven, by regulation [1].
