Pizza like that is[was??] worker's food in italy. Remember a margherita pizza in like the docks neighborhood of Genoa being like 1.25$ for something you could get cooked in a few mins during lunch when I first went to Europe. Pretty awesome. Was back before the Euro tho. I'm sure the same thing is like 12$ now.
i've made and failed a lot of pizzas, the reason those "artisan" pizzas look like shit is cuz theyre lazy and would rather just roll out their dough
Pizza originated in the US. NYC workers building the skyscrapers. A lot of them were wops, and they would get their pizzas from the local Italian restaurants as quickly reheatable meals they could put on the machinery while working. The earliest recipes were just like that picture. Dough topped with some tomato sauce and slices of mozzarella. Shredded cheeses weren't really a thing back then. Too labor intensive.
Yeah, but that stuff wasn't around late 19th and early 20th century because the process for mass production hadn't been invented yet. Pretty sure mozz was still being hand made at that point as well. You'd have a big knob of it and slice pieces off onto the pie before you put it in the oven.i forgot where i found out but practically all of nyc uses the same cheese
They are only special if you can get them within about 2 days of being made. The ones you buy at the supermarket are just cheese in a different shape.
Too hot for me. Got a wicked endorphin high and numb face off the pain, though.
No, but now I want to. What flavor are all those? And is this 35th anniversary for Kiki's Delivery Service or are they celebrating Studio Ghibli?
