Italian local pizza is not as fancy as Pizza Hut. They are unpretentious, but they are very delicious. Perhaps the most famous one is the Margaret pizza that Anne Hathaway chewed and brushed in the food prayer and love.
Before going abroad, our foreign teacher taught us how to identify Margaret's pizza: the only red and white pizza on it is Margaret's pizza. If you add the brown of smoked fish to it. Or the tender pink of Parma ham, then it's not. Because Margaret pizza is famous, but the ingredients are simple, just mozzarella cheese and ketchup. As a result, brown, pink and green pizzas are not. Later, I traveled all over Italy. When it was sometimes difficult to adapt to the local special cheese and special pizza, I would choose Margaret pizza. Its familiar and fixed taste made my heart feel at home.
Although Margaret's pizza is famous, it seems to be famous abroad, but it has not been given preferential treatment in the local area. At least, it's not always at the top of the pizza shop's menu, and it's not easy to see.
when I first arrived in Italy, I frequented a pizza shop downstairs from my apartment. At first, I was dazzled by the advertisement in the store, which listed twenty or thirty kinds of pizzas, Neapolitan pizzas. Roman pizza and four seasons pizza make people feel foggy. I wonder what pizza has to do with these place names and seasons. Later, I thought, don't we also have Shandong miscellaneous grains pancakes, Lanzhou Lamian Noodles and other delicacies in China? In Lamian Noodles, Lanzhou, there must be beef and mutton in people's minds. How come the fried noodles are crispy in Shandong miscellaneous grains pancakes?
fortunately, although there are no pictures next to each pizza, the ingredients are written in detail. It won't make me feel nervous. I'm always afraid to order a pizza that is too greasy or has gorgonzola cheese. I think most Italian cheeses are good, but I don't like blue cheese, because the blue stripes on it are a kind of mold, and I can't get over this, and it tastes really strange. Although I have tried it several times, I still can't get fond of it. But even so, because of the different treatment methods of ingredients, the pickled anchovies in the pizza I ordered for the first time still disappointed me, and the taste was really salty and bitter. As soon as I bit it, I couldn't help spitting out the fish and making a face.
I've been in Italy for a long time, and I'm getting familiar with all kinds of pizzas. Eating out more often is naturally familiar. However, people always have their own preferences and think they are familiar with it. In fact, in the face of twenty or thirty kinds of pizzas, the most common ones are just two or three. This self-righteous insight into the overall situation, the inner superiority that sprouted, probably goes beyond ordering pizza. Therefore, we often have to introspect, and we often have to put away our pretentious slights, return to life, observe the reality bit by bit, and observe it from another angle. We will realize the narrowness of our daily perspective, and thus gain a new life in stages.
To get to the point, through this way of self-examination, I really found something I missed in the past from ordinary things, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is to find precious pearls in sand.
at one time, a friend who decided to be a vegetarian showed me her recipes. I curiously scanned her food list for a week and found it very novel. There are some foods that I can't imagine, such as vegetarian hamburgers. As we all know, hamburgers are beef patties with refined bread. Another thing that makes me curious is that she can eat pizza marinara. The root of this pizza is mare, which means sea in Italian. According to my understanding, it is probably similar to Pizza Hut's seafood supreme pizza. How can it be vegetarian?
so I found the advertisement form downstairs, and found the section of this pizza. There is no seafood in its ingredients, but tomato sauce and a spice called pizza grass are added, which is very common in pizza making, and probably a little olive oil. It's really easy. I think that taste is also plain. When I was in middle school, a small restaurant near my school sold seafood fried rice with crab roe and diced cuttlefish, which made me forget it after graduation. Therefore, such an unoriginal "seafood" pizza makes me feel like being poured cold water.
This friend is my roommate. I was unconscious when I saw her munching on pizza. But that night, in my dream, the shadow of pizza always appeared. The dream was as follows: I dreamed that I was sitting in a small restaurant in the harbor, and the waiter brought me seafood pizza with bright red shrimp and sardines. But in the blink of an eye, the shrimp and fish suddenly moved with a bang! I was about to start with a knife and fork when I saw this scene. In this gap, fish and shrimp jumped into the sea. So only red ketchup and pizza grass were left on the crust of pizza.
when I woke up the next day, I was really angry and funny when I recalled it. I thought that I was deeply poisoned by the evidence, and I had to find out what the mystery was or I couldn't live a peaceful life. So I turned on the computer and looked up the information. It turned out that the proper translation of this pizza should be called sailor pizza, which originated in Naples. Accurately speaking, from the port of Naples, those hard-pressed sailors often drink and eat pizza in groups when they land, but because they all live a life, they can only eat the simplest pizza and the worst wine. This is the origin of sailor pizza, pizza marinara.
