I love New York Style pizza! The crust is thin but chewy. Love to fold it like a taco.
That sounds good, do you know anything about the history of that style of pizza?
A little bit. It started in the U.S. in the early 1900s and it's based on the pizza pie from Italy.
That makes sense, can you tell me anything else about New York style pizza?
New York-style pizza
New York-style pizza is pizza made with a characteristically large hand-tossed thin crust, often sold in wide slices to go. The crust is thick and crisp only along its edge, yet soft, thin, and pliable enough beneath its toppings to be folded in half to eat. Traditional toppings are simply tomato sauce and shredded mozzarella cheese.
This style evolved in the U.S. from the pizza that originated in New York City in the early 1900s, itself derived from the Neapolitan style
which he later added to the pizza. The white clam pie is crust, olive oil, oregano, grated cheese, chopped garlic, and fresh littleneck clams.
What makes New Haven style pizza distinct is its thin, oblong crust, characteristic charring, chewy texture, and limited use of melting cheeses. It tends to be drier and thinner than, but closely related to, traditional New York style pizza. Both styles in turn are close descendants of the original Neapolitan style.
