My number one favourite food!! Pizza! I just love eating them especially those feeshly baked hot from the oven!! Cheese and Pepperoni!! Well, let me share with you people bits of the history behind this delicious pizzas!!! The word pizza came from the Latin verb pìnsere, to press and from the Greek pēktos, πηκτός, meaning "solid" or "clotted".
A popular urban legend holds that the archetypal pizza, Pizza Margherita, was invented in 1889, when the Royal Palace of Capodimonte commissioned the Neapolitan pizzaiolo Raffaele Esposito to create a pizza in honor of the visiting Queen Margherita. Of the three different pizzas he created, the Queen strongly preferred a pie swathed in the colors of the Italian flag: red (tomato), green (basil), and white (mozzarella). Supposedly, this kind of pizza was then named after the Queen as Pizza Margherita, though recent research casts doubt on this legend.
Many varieties of pizza exist worldwide, along with several dish variants based upon pizza. Pizza is cooked in various types of ovens, and a diverse variety of ingredients and toppings are utilized. Most of the time, i would buy pizzas from Canadian Pizzas or Saprino pizzas. To me, their pizzas are the best!! I'm craving for pizza right now!
