Why has our pizza become UNESCO heritage?
Who doesn’t know
Italian pizza or doesn’t like it? Everybody
loves it, all are fans of Italian pizza, or more
precisely, Neapolitan pizza and now it has even been
certificated.
Pizza is the most widely known and eaten food in the world and that best identifies Italy. Every day in our country about 5 million pizzas are baked, while 5 billion are sold all over the world. It was born in 1889, when the Neapolitan chef, Raffaele Esposito, was summoned by Queen Margherita to prepare her famous favourite pizzas. The pizzaiolo then prepared a classic pizza in her honour with tomato, mozzarella and basil, which represented the colours of the Italian flag. So, December 7, 2017 is a historic date for Italy: on this date UNESCO proclaimed pizza, or rather, the art of Neapolitan pizzaiuoli, World Heritage.
