What is the origin and origin of pizza
"Pizza" is a kind of special sauce and toppings made of Italian flavor food, but in fact this food has transcended the language and cultural barriers, become a global snack, by the consumers of all countries. However, there is no way to tell when and where this food originated. So who actually invented pizza?

Origin: 3rd century BC, Roman history: round wheat cake + olive oil + spices + baked on the stone

Some people believe that pizza originated in China: when the famous Italian traveler Marco Polo traveled in China, he liked to eat a kind of northern popular scallion oil pie. When he returned to Italy he always wanted to be able to taste it again, but couldn't bake it. One Sunday, when he was meeting with friends at his home, Marco Polo called one of the chefs from Naples to his side to describe the northern Chinese scallion pie.

The chef made it the way Marco Polo had depicted. But after half a day's work, he still couldn't get the filling into the dough. Marco Polo suggested that the filling be eaten on top of the pie. The chef returned to Naples and made the pie with local cheese and ingredients, and it became a big hit, and the word "pizza" spread from there.

According to statistics, there are more than 20,000 pizzerias in Italy, including 1,200 in Naples. Most Neapolitans eat at least one pizza a week, and some eat them for lunch and dinner almost every day. It is customary for both rich and poor diners to fold their pizzas and hold them in their hands. This is one of the criteria for determining the quality of a pizza's handiwork. The pizza must be soft and firm, even if it is folded up like a "wallet", the outer layer will not break.
