The predecessor of pizza appeared in ancient times, including pita cake in the Middle East and flat bread with alcohol powder and seasoning from Morocco. According to the Italian-American Historical Association, Roman foreign legion soldiers stationed in Palestine were the first people to use herbs and olive oil to flavor local cakes. They did not use alcohol powder. So some people say that the mother of pizza is this kind of alcohol-free cake called matzoh, and Jews still eat this cake during Passover.
About a century later, Roman citizens began to eat this round cake with oil and seasoning on it. People call it focaccia as a snack or appetizer. About a thousand years ago, this kind of baked round cake covered with herbs and spices was particularly popular in Nablus, and the word picea also appeared in Nablus dialect. There is no exact statement about the origin of this word. Semanticists believe that it comes from an old Italian word meaning "pull" or "pinch", which may refer to the method of taking hot bread out of the oven.
However, it was not until the late17th century that Europeans in the old world overcame their fear of the newly discovered new continent, and the pizza we know now really appeared. A plant called tomato is native to Peru and Ecuador, and its yellow or red fleshy fruit is mainly used for decoration. Taxonomically, it belongs to the same family as the poisonous belladonna, so people are naturally full of doubts about it.
In the early16th century, the government of the New World brought tomatoes back to their hometown in Spain. It was not until two centuries later that Europeans got up the courage to discover the final use of tomatoes. Farmers in Naples mainly eat bread and seldom eat anything else, but they first add this new seasoning to bread.
Although travelers often go to the hungry and poor areas of Nablus to taste pizza, it is still an agricultural and family food. But by 1830, with the opening of the first real pizza shop in the world, its status had improved. This bakery is called Port Alba. The pizza here is baked in the oven, and the stove is made of lava from Mount Vesuvius. This restaurant was quickly accepted by literati.
Modern pizza originated in 1889, when Queen Margarita, the wife of Italian King Empoto I, visited Naples and asked Rafael esposito, the boss of Pietro il Pizzaiolo, to prepare a special food for her. What could be more appropriate than pizza in the color of the Italian flag? Esposito uses tomatoes to make red, perilla to make green, and also uses a seasoning that China has never used to make white-this is mozzarella cheese made of water emulsion. As it turns out, this kind of pizza has won the favor of the Queen, and it has also been welcomed by frequent customers in esposito restaurants. There is no microwave oven at home.
First, mix dough:

These are my best summaries. Because I want to make my own pizza, it is stored in the computer. "Pizza" is a kind of food with Italian flavor made of special cake bottom, cheese, sauce and stuffing, but in fact, this kind of food has transcended language and cultural barriers and become a world-famous beverage, which is loved by consumers all over the world. But it is difficult to know when and where this food originated. Nowadays, faced with millions of pizzas baked by Pizza Hut restaurant, a "pizza expert" all over the world, people will naturally think that this was initiated by a baker in Naples, Italy 400 years ago.
So who invented pizza? Some people think that pizza originated in China: the famous Italian traveler Kyle Poirot likes to eat a kind of scallion cake popular in the north when traveling in China. After returning to Italy, he always wanted to try it again, but he couldn't bake it. One Sunday, he got together with his friends at home. One of them was a chef from Naples, Kyle Poirot. He had a brainwave, called the chef to his side and described the leek pie in northern China to him. The chef also cheerfully made it according to the method described by Kyle Poirot. But after a busy day, I still can't put the stuffing into the dough. It's almost two o'clock in the afternoon, and everyone is hungry. So Kyle Poirot suggested putting stuffing on bread. Everyone calls it "good" after eating. After returning to Naples, the chef cooked several dishes and served them with Naples cheese and seasonings. Unexpectedly, it is very popular with diners, and since then, "pizza" has spread.
According to statistics, there are more than 20,000 pizzerias in Italy, including 65,438 +0.200 in Naples. Most Neapolitans eat pizza at least once a week, and some people eat pizza almost every day for lunch and dinner. Diners, rich or poor, are used to folding pizza and eating it with their hands. This has also become one of the bases for identifying the advantages and disadvantages of pizza making technology. Pizza must be soft and hard, even if it is folded like a wallet, the outer layer will not break.
At present, the most famous pizza chain in the world is Pizza Hut, and 1958 was established in Kansas, USA. The "red roof" is a prominent symbol of the appearance of Pizza Hut. Pizza Hut has more than 65,438+02,300 stores in more than 90 countries and regions around the world, including nearly 40 stores in China, which receive more than 4 million customers and bake more than 654,387,000 pizzas every day.
It is understood that a first-class pizza must have four characteristics: fresh crust, first-class cheese, top-class pizza sauce and fresh stuffing. The bottom of the cake must be made every day. Flour is usually ground with first-class wheat in spring and winter, so that the bottom of the cake will be crisp outside and soft inside. Pure cheese is the soul of pizza. Authentic pizza generally uses mozzarella cheese rich in protein, vitamins, minerals and calcium and low in calories.
Production process: First, mix the weighed flour with top secret ingredients, oil the bottom basin, spread a layer of thick pizza sauce made of delicious tomatoes mixed with natural spices, sprinkle soft l00%% first-class mozzarella cheese, add carefully selected fresh fillings such as seafood, Italian sausage, Canadian bacon, ham, spiced meat, mushrooms, green peppers and pineapples, and finally put them in an oven at 260℃. A delicious pizza has come out. It is worth noting that it is instant and tastes the best. Pizza is generally divided into three sizes according to its size: 6 inches (cut into 4 pieces), 9 inches (cut into 6 pieces) and 12 inches (cut into 8 pieces), and two kinds according to its thickness.
People like pizza because it is delicious and decorated with other snacks. For example, Pizza Hut's pizza is served with cream chicken and mushroom soup, chicken wings, various baked jiaozi, fried potato grates, buffet salad bar and so on. Among Italian dishes, pizza is the most familiar. This world-famous Italian food first appeared in Naples. Although some people in China like to associate it with China pie, Naples is recognized as the birthplace of pizza in the world. Many people think it combines the romance and fantasy of this city.
Italians have the highest quality of life, exquisite art and smart football, as well as Italian food that brings infinite aftertaste to taste buds. Besides Tiramisu, pizza is definitely another great contribution of romantic Italians to the world food culture:)
Italians are the best pizza makers in the world, but Americans are the best pizza makers. Pizza Hut has mushroomed in every corner of the world, improving food into a thick and greasy American taste, which makes pizza helpless and can only stay at the level of fast food. Those foods with more than a dozen ingredients piled on the cake are by no means Italian pizzas. Because authentic Italian food takes the exquisite catering route, the dishes are light and not greasy, and the original flavor and simple cooking are advocated. Pizza hut's soft and rich thick pizza image is deeply rooted, and Naples pizza has been wronged for no reason.
One of the most striking differences between Italian pizza and American pizza is that it is simple and grand, with only thin clothes and no thick clothes, and it pays attention to the use of mozzarella cheese and vanilla in materials.
Although Neapolitan pizza can be made all over the world, there is only one authentic pizza. Italians even drafted a series of laws and regulations concerning the shape, thickness, surface composition and even the way of dumping olive oil ... Only pizzas that meet these regulations are eligible to use the name Neapolitan pizza. It is said that these regulations were established to protect and promote the original traditional Neapolitan pizza. Food is regulated and protected by law. I'm afraid only Naples pizza in Italy has this honor. This shows that Italians value and love pizza and do not hesitate to protect their traditions by law.
Real Neapolitan pizza must be made by hand, and the dough must be kneaded and shaped, and then gently placed on a round plate by hand. "Rolling pins or any other mechanical tools are not allowed"; Try baking it in a charcoal stove. "The finished product must be soft, elastic and easy to break in half. “
In front of authentic Italian pizza diners, they always feel a certain distance from the deep-rooted pizza image in their minds. The real traditional Italian pizza is handmade with a thin bottom, and the ingredients are simpler than American pizza, even as simple as sprinkling some ham and tomato juice. Cheese with mozzarella cheese, the weight is not too much, and the salty taste is light. It will never have a slight impact like American pizza. The handmade cake has soft bottom, crisp bottom, high edge and attractive aroma.
Italian pizza is very particular about eating. Before eating, you should roll it out of the sharp corner of the cut pizza and bite it, so as to wipe off the lubrication of cheese and the crisp and soft skin of the cake, and the warm feeling will spread from the index finger to the lips, leaving a fragrance on the teeth and cheeks. Italian food is called "mother's taste" because most Italian mothers are good at cooking and cook delicious food with their love.
"We work to live, not live to work! This is the favorite saying of Italians who enjoy life the most. In the eyes of Italians, "a dinner is far more valuable than a good poem". Pizza (Italian pie) can be said to have transcended language and cultural barriers and become a global food. But people in different countries and regions have slightly different tastes in eating this pie.
It is difficult to know when and where this food originated, and it may be traced back to.
About 6000 years ago, when the ancient Egyptians discovered yeast and knew how to ferment dough.
Experts and scholars agree that about 200 years ago, bakers in Naples, Italy made millions of pizzas all over the world. At that time, Naples was a big city with a large population in Europe, and pizza was a fast food for the poor. Naples is the authentic origin of pizza, just as Munich is the origin of beer.
To make authentic pizza, we must strictly follow the recipes handed down from generation to generation by local pizza chefs. The spectrum has now been compiled into a manual for public use.
According to this book, every 1.8 kg of flour is mixed with 1 liter of water, and the amount of yeast depends on the surrounding temperature and humidity, and how long you want the dough to ferment-about 5 hours is appropriate.
According to statistics, there are more than 20,000 pizzerias in Italy, including 65,438 +0.200 in Naples. Most Neapolitans eat at least one pizza a week. It is said that some people eat pizza every day for lunch and dinner.
Hundreds of years ago, pizza was originally a round baked cake without tomatoes, and it was usually eaten as breakfast. At that time, vendors put pizza in a tall copper container called "Stufe" and sold it overhead. Buyers are often poor and can only afford a piece of diced food or ask for credit. There is an "eight-day pizza" that allows customers to owe money for a week.
Diners, rich or poor, will fold the pizza and eat it with their hands. This is one of the bases for identifying the handmade quality of pizza. Pizza must be soft and hard, even if it is folded like a wallet, the outer layer will not break.
Don't expect to buy pizza with spicy sausage, herring, curry or tofu in this city that pays attention to authentic pizza. "Of course, you have to add a pineapple to the pizza, but that's not Neapolitan pizza. "Antonio Perth, president of Naples Authentic Pizza Association, said disapprovingly. This guild has 150 members all over the world, and they all swear to sell only genuine products.
There are only two authentic Neapolitan pizzas, Margherita and Marinara. The former is very popular all over Italy. According to Naples Authentic Pizza Association, it can only be served with the following ingredients: Saint Mazenot tomato, ultra-pure olive oil, buffalo cheese, perilla and salt. The latter is named after the fisherman who used to eat pizza for breakfast, and it is covered with tomatoes, garlic, olive oil and mint slices.
1994, the world summit was held in Naples. One day, the local pizza chef Kasxiali saw a group of black cars passing by in his own small pizza shop downtown and almost stopped outside the shop. Then, I saw President Clinton get out of the car and walk on the sidewalk.
It turned out that Clinton wanted to take a walk. Cashier, with gray hair, immediately bypassed the Secret Service personnel (who were good at subduing assassins, but could not stop persistent bakers) and went forward to pay tribute to the President of the United States.
Caschari blurted out, "Mr. President, how about a pizza?"
Clinton was slightly surprised, but immediately replied with a smile: "Good. Pizza. "
In a blink of an eye, Cashier cooked two, one was a traditional margarita pizza, and the other was smaller, and it was thoroughly fried in boiling oil, which was a special product in his shop. Clinton ate them all. In the next two hours, Cassie became the most famous pizza maker in the world.
Pagnani, another pizza maker, heard that Cassali had "caught" the President of the United States and immediately sent a telegram to the hotel where Clinton stayed. The telegram reads: "We are waiting for you at the pizza shop that pioneered pizza." This is only a slight exaggeration. His shop is called Brandi, an old pizza shop in Naples. Margarita pizza has enjoyed a good reputation since it was invented by a chef in the shop.
It was June 1889, and on June 1 1 day, pizza chef esposito was invited to bake a pizza for Queen Margarita. At that time, the Italian kingdom was unified soon, and the reigning king was umberto. Some scholars believe that this is the Queen's deliberate attempt to taste people's favorite food in order to win people's hearts.
According to historical records, the pizza chef at that time baked three kinds of pizzas. The last pizza had tomatoes, cheese and perilla, which was equivalent to the red, white and green colors of the Italian flag. It is said that the queen especially appreciates the last one, so before long, this pizza will be called margarita.
After 105, the president's limousine arrived outside Pagnani's shop. Clinton got off the bus, thanked esposito's successor and said that he really couldn't afford the time to be invited to sit down, but he brought his mother-in-law and daughter.
Pagnani finally saved face! The two female guests not only ate a margarita pizza in the store, but also took two with them when they left.
Nowadays, people all over the world want to learn how to make pizza. Pizza chef Cascialli started a class in Seoul to teach Korean pizza chefs experience and technology. In addition, Neapolitans also plan to establish a "pizza university" and implement intensive on-the-job training in several long-established pizza shops. Many students signed up for a two-month course. Courses taught include the history of pizza, flour mixing, dough making and the use of firewood stoves. There are many theories about the origin of pizza, one of which is that pizza originated in China. The famous Italian traveler Kyle Poirot likes to eat a kind of scallion cake popular in the north when traveling in China. After returning to Italy, he always wanted to try it again, but he couldn't bake it. One Sunday, he got together with his friends at home. One of them was a chef from Naples, Kyle Poirot. He had a brainwave, called the chef to his side and described the leek pie in northern China to him. The chef also cheerfully made it according to the method described by Kyle Poirot. But after a busy day, I still can't put the stuffing into the dough. It's almost two o'clock in the afternoon, and everyone is hungry. So Kyle Poirot suggested putting stuffing on bread. Everyone calls it "good" after eating. After returning to Naples, the chef cooked it several times and served it with Naples cheese and seasonings. Unexpectedly, it is very popular with diners, and "pizza" has spread since then.
Pizza originated from the original way of eating salty cakes, called tomato, anchovies, sour beans and mozzarella cheese pizza, and evolved into a pizza chef who celebrated the arrival of the new Italian king in Naples and paid tribute to Queen Margaret in 1889, and made today's tomato pizza with green basil, red tomatoes and white mozzarella cheese.
In fact, it seems impossible to know when and where this food originated. It may be traced back to about 6000 years ago, when the ancient Egyptians discovered yeast and knew how to ferment raw noodles.
At present, experts and scholars agree that millions of pizzas baked every day around the world were initiated by bakers in Naples, Italy about 200 years ago.
Therefore, when we talk about the origin of pizza at present, we will talk about its origin in Naples, Italy.
