what is pizza?

Question

??????????????????????????????????????????

Answer 1

Pizza Pie, is the name of an oven-baked, flat, usually round bread covered with tomato sauce with optional toppings. It is a typical dish of Neapolitan cuisine.

Various toppings may be added, most typically:

cheese, most commonly mozzarella or a blend of cheeses
herbs and seasonings such as basil, oregano, and garlic
vegetables such as tomatoes, bell peppers, asparagus, eggplant, broccoli, spinach, olives, onions, and artichoke hearts
meat or seafood such as sausage, (especially pepperoni or salami), ham, bacon, ground beef, anchovies, chicken, tuna, and shrimp
Other common toppings include mushroom and pineapple
The crust is traditionally plain, but may also be seasoned with butter, garlic, or herbs, or stuffed with cheese. In some pizza recipes the tomato sauce is omitted (termed "white pizza"), or replaced with another sauce (usually garlic butter but can be sauces made with spinach or onions). Pizza is normally eaten hot (typically at lunch or dinner), but leftovers are often eaten cold for breakfast or as a snack.

Pissa is late Vulgar Latin (9th century) flat bread, and apparently came to mean a flat bread with a cheese topping by the 14th century in some Italian dialects.[1] Pizzo, which means "point" in Italian, may have been an influence.[2] Many languages around the Mediterranean have similar words meaning flat bread or unleavened bread, see pita.

The Italian word for a person with talent for making pizza is pizzaiolo. A restaurant that serves pizza is called a pizzeria (from Italian); the phrase "pizza parlor" is also used in the United States and Canada. Pizza can also be purchased in grocery stores or supermarkets (usually, but not always, frozen); in many countries, pizza can also be ordered by telephone (or, increasingly, via the Web) to be delivered, hot and ready to eat, to almost any address within range of the restaurant.

Answer 2

Main Entry: piz·za
Pronunciation: 'pEt-s&
Function: noun
Etymology: Italian, perhaps of Germanic origin; akin to Old High German bizzo, pizzo bite, bit, bIzan to bite -- more at BITE
: a dish made typically of flattened bread dough spread with a savory mixture usually including tomatoes and cheese and often other toppings and baked -- called also pizza pie
Any way it doesn't have marinara sauce on it, it has TOMATO sauce and you can pick what kind of cheese on it. some people don't even have cheese on it (like my friend she is vegan)and you can pick out the toppings you can have veggies and/or meat. My favoite is deluxe it have sausage peperoni and pepper it is so good. I also like the french bread pizza's they are really easy to make and taste SO good.

hope i helped.

Answer 3

To get an idea try this recipe for English Muffin pizzas:

split an english muffin (two halves)
on each half spoon some spaghetti sauce
on top of that sprinkle some mozzarella cheese.

Toast until lightly golden. Enjoy while hot.

Pizzas come in many varieties. This is just plain cheese. You can add any vegetable/meat combination. Some people even add fruit.

When my kids were little, this was the only way I could get them to get the four food groups in them (grain, dairy, fruit/vegetable & meat). Kids love 'em.
