 Pizza

Pizza is originally an Italian dish. It is the most common food in North America and Europe. But it is the most famous food in all over the world. The chef who makes pizza is called pizzaiolo. The traditional pizza is made in a wood fire oven with flattened bread, with lots of cheese, tomatoes, mushrooms, onions, a pinch of oregano and herbs, capsicum, and lots of other things. Pizza is the only food that more than 100 type and lots of history related to that. I have given some types in the below:

 

1.Neapolitan Pizza

In the 18th century, Neapolitan pizza was made Naples, Italy. It is the original and oldest type of pizza in the world. At that time, it was the only food that was affordable and as well as tasty. The pizza was made of sliced mozzarella, tomatoes, basil, garlic, extra virgin olive oil, and oregano.

In 2009, Italy made Neapolitan pizza as “Traditional Speciality Guaranteed dish” and in 2017 it was added in UNESCO‘s list of “Intangible cultural heritage.”

 

2. Chicago pizza

 

By the name, we can understand that this type of pizza was first invented in Chicago. This pizza was invented by the immigrant Italians who wanted to invent a food like Neapolitan pizza which looked like a pie. It was made of ground beef, mushrooms, a sprinkle of parmesan cheese, pepperoni, sausage, onion, and placed underneath the tomato sauce.

 

3. New York-style pizza

New York-style pizza is large, foldable sliced with a crispy crust. This type of pizza is famous all over America because of its unique taste. The amazing part of this pizza is it is cooked in a coal-burning oven or wood. New York pizza usually features tomato sauce, mozzarella cheese, pepperoni, sausage, anchovies, mushroom, oregano, garlic powder, parmesan cheese, and red pepper flakes.

The Sicilian pizza was first introduced in America at around the 19th century by Sicilian immigrants. It is also known as “sfincione’.  It is a square-shaped pizza which is made of soft dough, a crunchy crust, with or without cheese, tomato, onion, herbs, and anchovies. This pizza is baked in an oven at 425 degrees Fahrenheit. Sicilian pizza takes 15-20 minutes to be baked.
