(Web Desk) – Johnny di Francesco, an Australian pizza chef, broke Guinness World Record by putting 154 types of cheese into pizza pie. He works at 400 Gradi in Melbourne.
When someone broke his former 99-cheese pizza record with 111 different varieties, he determined to win his title back.
The chef decided to recapture the record with a 154-cheese pizza.
"While the 154-cheese pizza may not have been a culinary impossibility, it was certainly a culinary challenge! We knew it was an ambitious idea, but probably more-so than first anticipated," di Francesco said.
"We also needed to be sure each individual cheese was distinct enough from the next, yet complimentary to each flavor, and could blend really well together once combined," he said. "The cheeses included the likes of gorgonzola, pecorino, Taleggio, aged cheddar, gouda and of course, many more!"
The chef said the "Cheesy Pizza" was a hit with customers and sold a total 797 in just five days.
