Tasty Tuesday: Eddie Spaghetti’s Dill Pickle Pizza Pie

The Manmade Gourmet is schooled in the perfect pickle pizza pie

COLUMBIA SC (WOLO) – With the South Carolina State Fair in full swing, it means it is time for The Manmade Gourmet to get a visit from Eddie Porcelli, aka “Spaghetti Eddie.”  Spaghetti and his family operate the concession stand that bears his name at fairs all over twenty fairs each year, including the one right here in Columbia.

Spaghetti and his family have been in the event food business for nearly forty years, and a stop in Columbia has been on the list of stops for much of them.  Spaghetti says that each season, he tries to create new fan favorites.  He points out that a few years ago, he began the “pizza on a stick” craze, and this year there is a new tradition.

Spaghetti decided to take his signature pie, lather it up with his secret ranch sauce, and slap dill pickles on it…and WHALLLA The Dill Pickle Pizza Pie was born.  According to the pizza man, people have been loving the concoction, and it has become one his best sellers.

If you are wanting to try the new classic at home, Spaghetti suggests:

A good dough rounded into a nice shell

Ranch sauce with parmesan cheese

Lots of mozzarella cheese

Deli dill pickles

Once the pizza is baked, shake dill weed on top, and you can enjoy your own Spaghetti Eddie Dill Pickle Pizza Pie.

You can catch Eddie and all the wonderful food choices at the South Carolina State Fair through Sunday at the State Fair Grounds, or catch up with him on Facebook HERE.
