History of Pizza
Pizza is probably the most globally recognizable
food today. Originally a food for the poor it
has now become a dish for everyone . Pizza is the
result of a transformation developed over the
centuries. The ancestor of pizza is the
simple bread .It dominates history as one of the
most used foods for the poor who were forced to
eat only cereals and the few products that nature
was offering. They used their own imagination and
fantasy to create something tasteful for their
meals. Barley was the most common ingredient used
to prepare bread the first bread to take the form
of the pizza .the grains were crushed ,mixed with
water and flattened down on a round thin pan
.then they were cooked over red-hot stones .later
wheat flour substituted the other cereals ,
becoming the standard grain used. Through the
centuries pizza took its own course and developed
into the dish that we know today.This dish has
inspired, many writers and artists in our history
and its from their documents and notes that we
know that pizza has truly old origins .Its
existence is certified long before he discovery
after the introduction of the tomato to Italy in
the 16th century.
14
Throughout the 17th and 18th centuries Naples
established itself as the pizza capital of Italy.
However ,credit for the invention of the truly
modern pizza goes to a man named Rafaela
Esposito. For the 1889 visit of King Umberto I
and Queen Margherita , Esposito designed the
pizza margherita , which looked like the
Italian flag because of its red ,green ,and white
colors .the queen loved it ,and even today ,pizza
marguerite is the world standard. Pizza did not
find its way into the United States until after
the end of the Second World War.At that
time,U.S.soldiers returned home.Along wit their
return,they also brought back an appetite for the
pizza they had eaten and enjoyed in Italy.Pizza
parlors began to spring up in more and enjoyed in
Italy.Pizza parlors began to spring up in more
and more places as hungry people started to eat
this one-dish food on a regular basis. Today
,depending on where you live, you can usually
find a pizza parlor near your home. Many pizza
parlors will even deliver there food right to
your front door! Or, if you prefer, most grocery
stores sell frozen pizzas and pizza-making kits
