THE HISTORY OF PIZZA

Pizza as we know it today (dough topped with tomatoes and cheese) was invented
in Naples. Before the 1700s, flatbreads existed but were never topped with
tomatoes, which is now a defining characteristic of pizza.

Tomatoes were brought to Europe in the 16th century by explorers returning from
Peru. However, many Europeans believed tomatoes were poisonous until poor
peasants in Naples began to top their flatbread with them in the late 18th century.
The dish soon became popular. Many visitors to Naples would even seek out the
poorer neighborhoods to try this local specialty.

Marinara pizza does not have cheese. It received its name because it was
traditionally prepared by “la marinara” (a seaman’s wife) for her husband when he
returned from fishing trips in the Bay of Naples.

Baker Raffaele Esposito, who worked at the Naples pizzeria “Pietro… e basta così,”
is generally credited with creating Margherita pizza. In 1889, King Umberto I and
Queen Margherita of Savoy visited Naples. Esposito baked them a pizza named in
honor of the queen whose colors mirrored those of the Italian flag: red (tomatoes),
white (mozzarella), and green (basil leaves). This is what is now known as the
classic Neapolitan pizza today.
