Pizza is such an interesting food, since its current form is so much different than what inspired it so long ago.
I dont know much about the original pizzas what were they like?
Well way back in ancient times, what inspired modern pizza was when they put toppings like meat and vegetables onto flatbread.
That is kind of similar to todays pizza, I wonder if there was a sauce, I am thinking not
There was no sauce on those original flatbreads, but adding sauce to it was started by the addition of tomatoes to the focaccia, which was a flatbread made in Naples back in the 18th century.
That makes sense because pizza sauce is made from tomatoes, the roots are actually very similar, I wonder about the cheese, did they use cheese back then or just meat and veggies
Well pizza today can still be made without cheese, but as far as I know it was the italians who added cheese to the first modern-style pizza.
I wonder what we could add to make it an even better pizza, people come up with lots of ideas and some stick around for a long time, like the cheese
For all we know, pizza could even evolve from what it is today and what we eat today will be considered an old style. It's weird to think about.
Yea, we need to really start thinking of new stuff!!
