pizza



Pizza is a savory dish of Italian origin, consisting of a shallow bread-like crust covered with tomatoes and cheese, with various other toppings. It is commonly topped with a selection of meats, vegetables and condiments. Pizza may refer to the pan in which the dish is baked or the dough itself.

Pizza is a popular food in the United States, Italy, and many other countries. Pizza can be served as an appetizer or as part of a meal. The most common toppings include tomato sauce (sauce) and mozzarella cheese. Other toppings include sausage (Italian sausage), meatballs (meatball), pepperoni (pepperoni), mushrooms, green peppers and onions.

Pizza was invented in Italy in the 18th century by baker Raffaele Esposito who created it for Queen Margherita of Savoy when she visited Naples on her husbands' birthday celebration in 1889. When making pizza at home, you can add any of your favorite ingredients, such as onions or garlic cloves, to make this delicious dish even more appealing to your taste buds!

Which country invented pizza?

There is no doubt that Italy is the birthplace of pizza. The first pizza recipe was published in 1889, and the first pizzeria opened in 1830. A few years later, the first oven was patented in France—not Italy!

In Naples, which some consider being home to the best pizzas in all of Italy (and maybe even the world), where there's an old saying: "Ogni povero ha il suo pepperoni" or "Every poor man has his pepper." It refers to a time when people couldn't afford fresh tomatoes and used red bell peppers instead.

What are the ingredients of pizza?



Pizza is a flatbread that is baked in an oven. It has its origins in ancient Greece and spread throughout Europe. Modern pizza consists of wheat flour, water, yeast, salt and olive oil. In addition to these ingredients, other toppings can be added, such as cheese or vegetables.

The dough used for making pizza is kneaded to make it firm enough to be stretched out to form a circle. This circle is flattened until it becomes thin enough for baking in an oven at a high temperature (200°C). After baking the pizza, you can add any topping you like, such as cheese or vegetables.

pizza recipe

  • Prepare the pizza dough by combining 2 cups of flour, one teaspoon of sugar and one teaspoon of yeast in a mixing bowl. Mix well with your hands until the ingredients are blended well together.

  • Add in 3/4 cup warm water and mix again until you have an elastic ball of dough that doesn't stick to your hands anymore; this should take about 10 minutes on low speed with an electric mixer or kneading for about 20 minutes by hand (if you don't have either, knead it as much as possible). If your dough is too wet or sticky, add more flour gradually until it becomes easy to handle — but don't add too much, or else the pizza will be dryer than intended!
