Pizza Not Fast Food

Here in North America, pizza is considered fast food. No wonder given the way we make it here - high salt, processed cheese etc.

It doesn't have to the "fast-food" way. Ask any gourmande and definitely any Italian and they'd explain to you it can be as healthy as any food.

The picture you see is pretty much how we make it.

One way I love is making white pizza topped with rapini, onions and sometimes a cold cut of choice. Another is just a straight white pizza with garlic and rosemary.

As for the origins, man has been eating flatbreads with certain toppings for centuries even well before the Greeks. However, there is no arguing the pizza as we know it is indeed a Naples thing.
