Bread and Salt
Rick Easton, a James Beard Award semifinalist baker who learned pizza al taglio in Rome, opened Bread and Salt in the Jersey City Heights in June 2019 after closing his Pittsburgh bakery of the same name. The dough is naturally leavened from a multi-flour blend with a days-long fermentation, and the shop operates as essentially an oven and a counter rather than a full kitchen, selling Roman-style pizza al taglio by the slice alongside focaccia and Italian provisions.
